Grinstead and her boyfriend, Nathan Smith, 30, of Clifton, Colorado, were driving on I-70 near Blackwater in June when they were pulled over by a state trooper for not having a license plate lamp and following too closely.That’s when Smith allegedly took off at speeds of more than 100 mph before crashing and rolling his vehicle about six miles west of Boonville. The pair admitted they were avoiding authorities because Smith didn’t have a valid license, and Grinstead was a convicted felon with a handgun in the vehicle. A search of the vehicle turned up the gun, a glass smoking pipe, and about two grams of methamphetamine. The trooper also found two containers holding almost 900 fentanyl pills.Smith’s next scheduled court appearance is next month.</div></body>
