From the Madison County Sheriff’s Office –

Madison County Sheriff John Mehr has high praise for a combined effort this afternoon with Madison County Deputies and  the Jackson Police Department.

At 1:19 p.m., (Friday) at Kroger on East University Parkway and North Highland, a car hit a pickup truck and the two men in the car jumped out and took off running.

An MCSO Deputy on the scene, assisted an Officer with the JPD and both the fleeing men were captured.

The driver of the pickup truck did not need hospitalization.

Sheriff Mehr urges citizens to get license numbers, photos  and information when they see an incident such as this and contact law enforcement quickly.
