Three Arrested In Prineville After High Speed Pursuit

PRINEVILLE, OR -- Crook County Sheriff's deputies and Prineville Police took three men into custody Sunday night after a high-speed chase. It started a little after 11 p.m. when Jefferson County deputies spotted a Chevy Camero racing through Madras at 130 miles an hour with no lights on. 

As the car headed into Prineville at 100 miles an hour, law enforcement called off the pursuit for safety reasons.  Shortly after, law enforcement found the Camero parked at NW Campbell Ranch Road near Elliott Lane; but it was empty.

A K9 team and a drone were deployed, helping to locate three men hiding behind a building. They were taken into custody; their names have not been released. The driver was booked into the Jefferson County Jail.
