KIMBALL -- The Kimball Police Department and the Kimball County Sheriff’s Office assisted the Scotts Bluff County Sheriff’s Office, and the Nebraska State Patrol, following a high speed pursuit from Scotts Bluff County on Highway 71 earlier this afternoon.
The pursuit came to a stop in the area of Highway 71 and Mile Marker 20.
At about 11:30 a.m. today, the Scotts Bluff County Sheriff’s Office was notified of a woman identified as Bayleigh Dollison, 25, driving a silver Chevrolet Malibu with Colorado In-Transit plates, with active felony warrants out of Texas and Tennessee. The warrants were confirmed along with a photo identifying Dollison.
At around 12:39 p.m., 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. Dollison was taken into custody on the active felony warrants out of Texas. She will face charges in Scotts Bluff County including 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.
