On Wednesday night, the Scotts Bluff Sheriff's Office issued a press release in regard to a pursuit in Western Nebraska. Here is the following:
At around 1130 hours the Scotts Bluff County Sheriff’s Office was notified of a female identified as Bayleigh Dollison, age 25, driving a Silver Chevrolet Malibu with Colorado In-Transits, with active felony warrants out of Texas and Tennessee. The warrants were confirmed along with a photo to identify Ms. Dollison.
At around 1239 hours the vehicle was identified by a Deputy Sheriff, traveling south on Five Rocks at the intersection of Country Club Road with the female driving. The Deputy attempted a traffic stop and the vehicle immediately accelerated and continued south onto Highway71.
Deputies with the Sheriff’s Office pursued the vehicle south on Highway 71 with speeds reaching 125 mph. The pursuit was allowed to continue as there was very light traffic and no road or weather conditions that would create any additional dangers.
The Kimball County Sheriff’s Office successfully deployed spike strips in the area of Road 40 on Highway 71. The vehicle then was forced to stop, due to a deflated front tire. Ms. Dollison was taken into custody on the active felony warrants out of Texas. Ms. Dollison will be charged in Scotts Bluff County with Flight to Avoid Arrest, Willful Reckless Driving, Possession of Fentanyl, Possession of Methamphetamine and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia. She is also held on two Texas drug-related warrants, and one Tennessee warrant charging her with Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor.
Assisting with the investigation were the Scotts Bluff County Sheriff’s Office, Gering Police Department, Nebraska State Patrol, Banner County Sheriff’s Office, Kimball County Sheriff’s Office, and the Kimball Police Department.
