Arrested at 2:45 p.m. was Jareld Ellis, 20, 2838 Clinton Ave. He faces charges of being in possession of stolen property and felony eluding, said Vicksburg Police criminal intelligence analyst Suzan Ebeling.

It was about 2:33 when the driver of a 2007 Mazda refused to stop when a Vicksburg Police patrolman attempted to pull it over at Clay and Locust streets, Ebeling said.

The patrolman began chasing the Mazda but lost it near Cherry and Magnolia after many turns. A few minutes later, the car was found unoccupied in the 1200 block of Woods Street, and a person was seen running on railroad tracks near First North Street. Ellis was arrested on Harrison Street.

The eluding vehicle was later identified as one stolen from a Hertz car rental company in Jackson.

Ebeling said Ellis was being held in the Issaquena County Jail pending an appearance in Vicksburg Municipal Court this afternoon.
