Handgun Found in Ditch After K-9 Search in Daviess County

0

A K-9 search in rural Daviess County produced a handgun tossed into a ditch line.

user33681-1413840188-media1

Early this afternoon, Troopers with the Jasper Post conducted a K-9 search in the area of County Road 750 North and County Road 550 East, near Epsom. Troopers Mitch Wier and Robert Lambert, along with K-9 “Diesel”, were searching the area for additional evidence related to the Saturday morning pursuit in the area, in which Trooper Wier arrested three on multiple drug charges. While searching, Diesel located a .44 caliber revolver, lying within the weeds.

At this time, Troopers are unclear if this weapon was tossed by the two suspects that were fleeing from Trooper Wier on foot Saturday morning. Further fingerprint testing at the State Police Forensic Laboratory will be conducted to determine who the gun belongs to. What Troopers can confirm is that a handgun that could have possibly been found by a child has been safely secured.

Troopers are continuing their investigation; further information will be released as it becomes available.

*Photographs are of the .44 caliber revolver as it was found in the ditch, and of K-9 “Diesel” with the recovered gun

Just before 2:30 Saturday morning, Indiana State Police received a report of a gray Ford F-150 pick-up truck that had driven through a fence at 8363 North County Road 550 East, Epsom, and left the scene.

Trooper Mitch Wier and Daviess County Deputies arrived on scene and spoke with the property owner; he informed officers of who he believed had been driving the truck.

Officers began driving in the area near the scene of the crash, looking for the Ford. At 3:14, officers located the Ford in a church parking lot in Epsom; however, the vehicle was unoccupied.

While waiting for a tow-truck to impound the vehicle, an SUV slowed down on County Road 550 East to turn into the church parking lot. After seeing officers standing near the Ford truck, the SUV continued on CR 550 E and sped away. Trooper Wier, believing the SUV was stopping to retrieve the Ford truck, attempted to stop the SUV by activating his emergency lights. The SUV accelerated, attempting to evade officers.

Three minutes later, the driver of the SUV turned off the vehicle’s lights, pulled into a driveway just off of County Road 800 North, and stopped. After stopping, the driver and one passenger fled from the vehicle on foot. Trooper Wier attempted to pursue the two on foot, but returned to secure the remaining three passengers in the vehicle. Washington PD Officer Derrick Devine and his K-9 partner “Diesel” arrived on scene to attempt to track the two subjects.

While conducting an inventory of the SUV before impounding the vehicle, Trooper Wier located methamphetamine, hypodermic needles, and other drug paraphernalia. The K-9 track did not locate either of the two subjects, but did recover of a purse with a large quantity of marijuana.

Officers found that the purse belonged to one of the three passengers. Officers believe they have determined the identity of the subjects who fled the scene, and will file warrants for their arrest through the Daviess County Court.
