(KNZA)--A Mayetta teen was arrested following an early Tuesday morning Jackson County pursuit.
Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse, in a release, said a sheriff's deputy observed red 2012 Honda Civic traveling southbound on W. Road from 174th Road shortly before 1:30.
Morse said the deputy attempted to stop the vehicle, which allegedly eluded the deputy. A pursuit ensued, and the vehicle struck a stop sign. The deputy observed the bumper from the car lying in the roadway.
Morse said the vehicle stopped near 158th and T. Roads, where the rear seat passenger allegedly fled on foot.
The driver, identified as 18-year-old Skylar Joe Robert Mechtley, was arrested.
Mechtley was transported to the Jackson County Jail where he was booked on charges of fleeing and eluding a law enforcement officer, possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia.
