(KNZA)--A 45-year-old Oskaloosa woman is in custody following a Tuesday evening pursuit in Jackson County.

Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse said the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office received an attempt to locate bulletin from Jefferson County authorities around 2:00 Tuesday afternoon to locate a woman that might be suicidal and intoxicated.

Jefferson County authorities were able to contact the woman by phone. 

Jackson County deputies located the woman near 222nd and K. Roads in Jackson County in a Dodge pickup around 4  p.m.  Morse said deputies observed that the woman was armed with three firearms, and attempted to negotiate with her to surrender to law enforcement.

The woman fled from the deputies northbound on K. Road and then east on 286th Road. Deputies and Kansas Highway Patrol troopers attempted to disable the vehicle with tire deflation devices.  The truck continued eastbound and turned northbound on O. Road to K-9 Highway.  The pursuit went eastbound on K-9. 

At about 5 p.m., the Sheriff’s Office performed a tactical vehicle intervention maneuver that disabled the vehicle prior to reaching the intersection of K-9 and U.S. 75 Highways.  The maneuver caused the truck to leave the highway and crash into the fence of an electrical sub-station.

Deputies and troopers continued to persuade the driver to surrender her weapons and to come out of the vehicle. 

Morse said the woman surrendered around 6:20 p.m. to law enforcement.  The woman was assessed by EMS and was transported to a local hospital for further evaluation.
