Early last week, a Colorado woman who reportedly dodged the police multiple times was arrested for over a dozen charges when they finally caught her.

On January 27, Mesa County sheriff’s deputies spotted a vehicle that had escaped from them several times when they tried to pull them over. When they eventually located the car and tried to talk to the woman behind the wheel she took off. The authorities decided to try to capture her, so additional deputies assisted and formed a perimeter around the neighborhood with their cars to keep her from going too far. Shortly after, they saw the vehicle had been abandoned at a residence in the area.

While still in the neighborhood, the deputies encountered a vehicle without headlights. They got the driver to stop, and she reportedly gave the officers the wrong name and told them she borrowed the car from a relative.

Two individuals were arrested when a neighbor informed the authorities that the couple moved into a home on the Gulf Coast without permission and allegedly ran an ad to rent out the dwelling.

According to reports, homes in the unincorporated Sarasota County town of Nokomis were damaged during recent hurricanes. Several owners and residents have been working on repairs, so when a couple began staying in an unoccupied local home and started cleaning it up, it did not initially seem out of the ordinary. After the man pressure-washed the outside of the house, he asked the neighbor across the street to pay him for the job. Requesting money from the individual raised red flags, and the neighbor decided to notify the authorities so the police could determine if everything going on was above board. The neighbor also reported seeing a “for rent” listing for the house when they were on Facebook.

The homeowner, who was in Jacksonville, learned about the situation when they talked to deputies with the Sarasota Sheriff’s Office. They said they did not permit anyone to be in the house and wanted to press charges against the alleged squatters. When deputies went to the residence, they reported that there was fresh food in the fridge, in addition to other indications that the couple had been living there. When they spoke to the authorities, they said they were there because they were hired to take care of the mess.
