Yesterday just before noon, a Cass County deputy arrested a juvenile in Grandview after a pursuit that started in Belton.
The deputy noticed the driver was speeding as he headed southbound on Interstate 49 just south of E. 155th St. At this time, the deputy noticed the car had expired temporary tags. The driver continued driving recklessly as he changed directions, and eventually headed northbound on I-49.
The driver sped at excessive levels as he approached the Main St. overpass in Grandview. He slowed down and swerved to the right side of the roadway. He then got out of the car and began to flee on foot.
A Cass County deputy followed the juvenile suspect on foot as he entered a nearby apartment complex.
The deputy eventually arrested the juvenile suspect outside of a home in the area just moments later.
The Grandview and Kansas City Police Departments officers responded to this scene and assisted.
The juvenile suspect was released to the Cass County Juvenile Office with charges pending.
