Kentucky State Police troopers are wanting to identify the driver of a vehicle who led them on pursuit around 7:30 a.m. on Sept. 3.
Troopers said the truck appears to be a black 2017-2020 Ford F-250, four-door diesel STX or Lariat model with a black grill, black wheels and chrome door handles. According to KSP, the truck also appears to have a low-profile toolbox in the bed and may have a black “Friends of Coal” Kentucky registration tag.
The pursuit was originally initiated on KY 1207 in Daviess County when a trooper observed the truck traveling southbound at a high rate of speed. The trooper attempted to stop the truck but the driver failed to comply, according to KSP. The pursuit continued south on KY 81 to Calhoun but was ultimately terminated due to inclement weather and heavy traffic.
The truck was last seen on KY 815, north of Calhoun.
If you know the identity of the operator and/or owner of this truck, contact Kentucky State Police Post 16 at 270-826-3312.
