All criminal defendants are to be presumed innocent until, and unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
Yesterday a vehicle pursuit led to the arrest of Cox Jr., who was incarcerated in the Miami County Jail to face criminal charges for resisting law enforcement with a vehicle, resisting law enforcement, invasion of privacy, intimidation, theft, reckless driving, three counts of criminal mischievous, and driving after never having received an operator’s license.
Yesterday, at approximately 6:09 p.m., Indiana State Trooper Ezariah Bricknell was looking for Cox Jr in the area of State Road 218 and Miami County Road 500 West. Trooper Bricknell was investigating an invasion of privacy and intimidation case allegedly involving Cox Jr. Bricknell observed Cox Jr driving a 2001 Chevrolet Blazer and initiated a traffic stop by activating the police car’s emergency lighting and siren. Cox Jr allegedly failed to stop and led the trooper on an approximately eleven-minute vehicle pursuit. The vehicle chase ended when the Blazer became disabled in a cornfield near Cass County Roads 500 South and 950 East.
Cox Jr. emerged from the Chevrolet and fled on foot into the cornfield. He initially evaded officers but was eventually captured, at approximately 11:56 p.m., in Kokomo, near Alto Road and U.S. 931.
Trooper Bricknell was assisted by Trooper Detective Josh Maller, Trooper Jon Cole, and officers from the Cass County Sheriff’s Department.
