Stolen Vehicle Chase Ends Near Silver Lake

The Shawnee Co. Sheriff's Office says Vincent Gonzalez-Rook, 19, was booked on a felony warrant, and charges including fleeing, obstruction and possession of stolen property.
The Sheriff's Office says a corporal on patrol spotted a stolen vehicle driving on Hwy. 24 near Goodyear Rd. around 3:30 p.m. Tuesday.
The deputy tried to pull over the vehicle, but the driver, who was identified as Gonzalez-Rook, fled. The pursuit ended about 10 minutes later, when the car went through a field at Hwy. 24 and Landon Rd., stopped at a tree line and the driver got out and ran.
Authorities say two passengers were immediately taken into custody. They were questioned at the scene and released.
Deputies set up a perimeter and used a K-9 to track Gonzalez-Rook. They say he surrendered about an hour later, as he heard the K-9 approaching near NW 17th St. and Countryside Rd., west of Lower Silver Lake Rd.
The Shawnee Co. Sheriff's Office says Silver Lake and Rossville Police, Kansas Highway Patrol and KS Dept. of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism assisted in the pursuit, search and arrest.
