An incident that began with a report of runaway juveniles and later reportedly included shots fired and the theft of a car ended with two arrests.
According to the LaRue County Sheriff’s Office, deputies were dispatched to the Life Connection alternative school in Sonora Saturday for two separate runaway juvenile incidents. A search of the area revealed two of the four missing juveniles, while the two that were not recovered “were then entered into NICS as missing/runaways.”
Shortly after midnight Sunday, LaRue County 911 received a call from a residence on New Jackson Highway in Magnolia. The caller reported that he had been sitting on his porch when he noticed the dome light was on in his vehicle. A suspect pointed a gun found in the vehicle at the man and told him to get back in the house. The two suspects then fled into a nearby cornfield from where they allegedly fired rounds in the direction of the house. A search of the area did not reveal the suspects, who were later identified as the missing juveniles.
At around 7 a.m. Sunday, a New Jackson Highway resident reported her car was stolen. While investigating, the sheriff’s office was informed by Marshall County Dispatch that the juvenile suspects had been located and arrested.
