Authorities in Harrison County say a Missouri Valley man was arrested Thursday, following a high speed chase that began on Interstate 29 and ended on I-680. Missouri Valley Police Chief Ed Murray told the Daily NonPareil 43-year old Anthony Valenzuela was taken into custody on suspicion of misdemeanor eluding, reckless driving, speeding, driving without a license, driving without insurance and other traffic violations. The man was being held Thursday in the Harrison County Jail.

Murray said the incident began at around 4-p.m., when a Missouri Valley Police officer attempted to stop Valenzuela’s 1996 Chevy S10 pickup truck. The officer observed Valenzuela drive by in a residential area of Missouri Valley and recognized him from a traffic stop on Wednesday for driving without a license and without insurance.

Valenzuela refused to pull over and traveled south on I-29 before turning onto I-680. At times, his truck was traveling near 95-mph.  Valenzuela was finally apprehended at the 16-mile marker of I-680.
