The Jasper County Prosecuting Attorney's office filed felony resisting arrest by fleeing charges against a Carl Junction man who fled from police who were answering a domestic disturbance call at his home.
According to the probable cause statement, Corban Mitchell Radley, 45, verbally threatened his wife, who decided to leave the house for a while.
She got into her car, but the defendant followed her, telling her she could leave but not with the car. As he became more agitated, the victim locked the doors. The defendant lay down behind the car to prevent the victim from leaving, then got up when he realized she was calling the police.
He went to her car door, yelling at her and attempting repeatedly to open the door.
When Carl Junction police officers arrived, Radley jumped into his own car, according to the probable cause statement and took off, running a stop sign. Officers pursued him, but ended the pursuit when Radley began driving at speeds of close to 100 miles per hour on a county road with a 45 mile per hour speed limit.
They located Radley at County Road 290 and Kafir where he had crashed the vehicle, according to the statement. He suffered minor injuries.
Radley told the officers he never intended to assault his wife and he only fled because he didn't want to talk to them, according to the statement.
