Fremont County Sheriff Kevin Aistrope reports, that at around 12:40-p.m. Monday, his deputies and the Fremont County K9 Unit, were conducting a narcotics investigation in Tabor when deputies attempted to stop a Maroon Chevy Tahoe near the intersection of Hillcrest Drive and Highway 275, in Tabor.  The vehicle failed to yield and fled from deputies northbound into Mills County.

Near the intersection Highway 275 and Krutzinger Avenue, the vehicle entered the yard of a residence and continued west into a field.  A passenger attempted to flee from the moving vehicle and was quickly arrested.  The vehicle continued west, and law enforcement used vehicle intervention to bring the vehicle to a stop.  All occupants were arrested without further incident.
