On August 28, 2026, deputies responded to Interstate 70, near the 177-mile marker, after a pickup truck was involved in a crash with a tractor-trailer. Witnesses further advised female driver, from the pickup truck, fled the scene on foot. Deputies learned the pickup had been reported stolen from the Troy area and that the driver may be armed. With assistance from a nearby citizen, using a side-by-side, deputies tracked the female through a field and located her approximately 300 yards away walking along the railroad tracks. After a brief foot pursuit and repeated commands to stop, the female surrendered and was taken into custody without further incident.
During the investigation, deputies located a loaded .45-caliber handgun and a loaded .22-caliber r***e inside the stolen vehicle. The Missouri State Highway Patrol assumed the crash and DWI investigation. The female refused a chemical test, and a search warrant was subsequently obtained for a blood draw, which was conducted at the MC Jail by our Sheriff's Office Deputy Phlebotomist . The fi****ms were turned over to the investigating trooper, and the stolen vehicle was recovered. The Montgomery County Sheriffโs Office would like to thank the citizen who assisted deputies by providing the use of a side-by-side. The citizenโs assistance helped deputies safely and quickly apprehend the suspect.
On August 28, 2026, deputies conducted a traffic stop on Highway 19 near Highway K for a vehicle displaying an expired registration.
