Two arrested after fleeing from police in Nodaway County

Nodaway County officials arrested two people who fled from authorities investigating a series of thefts Tuesday.

The two, an adult man and a male juvenile, were in a stolen Chevrolet Silverado that members of the Maryville Police Department attempted to stop a little after 2:35 a.m. Tuesday. They drove south out of town with officers in pursuit, leaving the road at Route M and Jet Road and causing the vehicle to become disabled. The two then ran into a nearby cornfield.
