(KNZA)--Two arrests are made following a Jackson County pursuit that stemmed from a reported possible burglary in progress.

Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse, in a release, says the report was for 2830 102nd Road, about a half-mile south of Delia.

A Sheriff- Deputy arrived on the scene, shortly after 12:20 Monday afternoon, and spotted a white Jeep fleeing on the property.

The Jeep, Morse says, “turned south at a high rate of speed and made its way back to 102nd Road” where Morse attempted to stop the Jeep, which instead went westbound on 102nd Road, continuing down several low maintenance roads and into Pottawatomie County, west of 63 Highway. Eventually, the vehicle left the roadway at Doyle Creek and Pleasant View Road, in Pottawatomie County.

Two occupants of the Jeep, which caught fire, as did the surrounding field, were both taken into custody.

Their names are not immediately made public.

Morse says assistance was provided to his office by the Pottawatomie County Sheriff, Fire, and Emergency Management, as well as the Kansas Highway Patrol.
