One of two men arrested after a vehicle theft and pursuit in Jackson County entered a plea in Jackson County Court.

According to the Jackson County Sheriff’s Department, around 9:45pm on December 8th of last year, they received a report of a suspicious vehicle in the driveway of a home in the Town of Garfield. After an investigation, it was determined the vehicle was stolen out of Minnesota.

The two suspects fled into the woods before authorities arrived. Authorities were contacted by a neighbor who stated the two men were trying to steal her vehicle. The suspects fled in her vehicle, but were intercepted by a deputy.

After a high-speed pursuit, the vehicle stopped on its own in the City of Osseo and the suspects were taken into custody. The two men were identified as Trenton Harris of Mount Pleasant, Michigan and Isaiah Harris of Mount Pleasant, Michigan.

During Isaiah’s court appearance on Monday, he waived his preliminary hearing and entered a not guilty plea to the charge against him. He’s scheduled to be back in court in August.

Back in February, Trenton Harris was found guilty of, due to a no contest plea, take and drive a vehicle without consent and vehicle operator fleeing and eluding an officer. He was sentenced to 24 months in prison and 18 months of extended supervision.
