(KNZA)--A Horton man was arrested following a pursuit in northern Jackson County.

Shortly before 10:00 on the evening of December 27, Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse said a Sheriff's deputy was patrolling on U.S. 75 Highway near 302nd Road when he observed a southbound car allegedly weaving in and out of traffic with a speed of 122 mph in a 65 mph zone.

The deputy turned around and attempted to stop the vehicle, but the vehicle sped away and turned east on 286th Road. The vehicle then turned south on Q.4 Road and turned it lights off where the vehicle disappeared in the fog. Area law enforcement agencies attempted to locate the vehicle.

Morse said the deputy's patrol vehicle was equipped with License Plate Reader technology (LPR) that was able to capture the vehicle and the vehicle's license plate as it passed in the darkness.

Further investigation led to the identification of the driver, 39-year-old Matthew Adams, who was arrested shortly before 12:30 the morning of December 28th in Holton. Deputies impounded Adams’ 2003 Lincoln LS.

Following his arrest, Adams was booked into the Jackson County Jail for fleeing and eluding law enforcement, reckless driving and additional traffic charges. He remains held on a $15,000 bond.
