On 2-7-2020 at around 3:00 AM, an officer from the Belton Police Department located a 2014 Dodge Ram truck reported stolen out of Lee’s Summit. The officer attempted to stop the vehicle in the area of I-49 and 163rd St but the driver refused to stop.
Belton officers pursued the truck southbound on I-49 heading toward Peculiar. The Peculiar Police deployed a tire deflation device on southbound I-49 near 203rd St. The driver lost control of the truck, left the roadway and rolled over near I-49 and Peculiar Way.
A 25 year old female was ejected from the truck and has since been admitted to a local hospital with serious injuries. A 37 year old male was taken into custody at the scene and also transported to the hospital with less serious injuries.
The identities of the male and female are not being released pending formal charges.
