From Sergeant Jason Morris

The Kentucky State Police in Columbia received information from the Pulaski County dispatch of a strong armed robbery and theft of a vehicle from inside Somerset at approximately 10:34amCT on Wednesday, March 22, 2023. The vehicle was a black Kia Soul and last seen on the parkway traveling west.

Trooper Jamie Heller along with other Troopers from Columbia Post were given the vehicle information to attempt to locate on the parkway. Heller was able to locate the vehicle traveling west on the parkway at a high rate of speed. When Heller attempted to stop the vehicle, the driver refused to stop and accelerated to speeds over 100 mph. During the pursuit, he stopped his vehicle in the roadway and shifted to reverse ramming his vehicle into the front of Heller's police Tahoe. The car then continued west, where troopers with Columbia Post were able to successfully use tire deflation devices. The driver ran the vehicle off the right side of the parkway through a fence into a field.

He was taken into custody after a short foot pursuit.
