(KNZA)--A 44-year-old man was arrested last week after leading a Richardson County Sheriff's deputy on a pursuit shortly after bonding out of jail.
The Richardson County Sheriff's Office, in a release, said a deputy attempted to stop a vehicle that was southbound on Highway 75 late Wednesday, May 10, shortly after 11:00. The release says the vehicle was traveling at 85 miles an hour in a 65 miles per hour zone when the deputy observed the vehicle.
As the deputy turned around and was getting ready to stop the vehicle, it increased its speed to around 120 miles an hour as it fled southbound into Kansas.
The vehicle ended up stopping at the All Star Truck Plaza in Sabetha.
The release says the driver, identified as Jose Laurido, was non-compliant, and a taser was utilized to take him into custody.
Laurido informed the deputy he had just bonded out of the Richardson County Jail about 35 minutes earlier after posting a $750 bond. He had been arrested less than 24 hours earlier on May 9 in Dawson for possession of methamphetamine, marijuana and concentrated THC.
Following his arrest last Wednesday, Laurido was booked into the Richardson County Jail on new charges--including operating a motor vehicle to avoid arrest.
The Richardson County Sheriff's Office thanked the Sabetha Police Department and Brown County Sheriff's Office for their assistance.
