(KNZA)--Two individuals were arrested following a pursuit in southern Jackson County Friday evening.

Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse, in a news release, said the pursuit began shortly before 5:00 after a sheriff's deputy attempted to stop a vehicle for a traffic infraction near 158th and R. Road on the south edge of Mayetta.

The vehicle fled north through Mayetta, and turned north on R. Road.

After coming to a T intersection at 182nd Road, the car slid off the road into a field but was able to exit and continue west on 182nd.

Morse said the car encountered law enforcement east of Highway 75 and 182nd Road where the four occupants surrendered.

Two of the occupants were taken into custody.

Morse said the driver, a juvenile, was arrested for possession of a hallucinogenic drug, possession of drug paraphernalia, felony fleeing and eluding a law enforcement officer and reckless driving. In addition, the juvenile had been entered as a missing person and had an outstanding felony warrant out of Shawnee County for vehicle burglary and theft of a firearm.

18-year-old Dathan Aaron Horn, of Topeka, was arrested for possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.
