Holts Summit man arrested after stolen truck chase in Callaway County
COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)
A Holts Summit man is in custody of the Callaway County Sheriff's Office following a high-speed chase with law enforcement Saturday night.
According to a social media post, the Callaway County Sheriff's Deputies were looking for a stolen truck from State Road OO west of Holts Summit. Deputies later found it on County Road 4031 east of Holts Summit.
The driver of the truck — 33-year-old Zachary Ryan Fewins — fled after deputies began a traffic stop. Deputies then chased him along multiple county roads including Highway 94 and Highway 63. Fewins reportedly reached speeds of up to 130 miles per hour.
Deputies were assisted by the Columbia Police Department, Boone County Sheriff's Office and Missouri State Highway Patrol, with law enforcement laying out spike strips and performing a tactical vehicle intervention or PIT maneuver to stop the suspect.
Fewins initially refused to get out of the truck, but later cooperated with law enforcement, later being transported to a hospital for medical evaluation.
A stolen pistol was found in the truck.
Fewins was arrested and charged Sunday with stealing a motor vehicle, aggravated fleeing a stop or detention, armed criminal action, first-degree trespassing and three counts of second-degree harassment.
He is being held in the Callaway County Jail without bond.
Court documents show Fewins was charged with similar felonies in the past for resisting arrest, stealing motor vehicles and trespassing in Callaway and Cole County.
