SEDGWICK COUNTY—Law enforcement authorities investigating a shooting that occurred in Wichita's Old Town on October 29, have made their case on charges against 21-year-old Jamarcus C. Vaughn to the Sedgwick County District Attorney's office.
Just before 11:30a.m. November 7, police located Vaughn and attempted to stop him during a traffic stop, according to Officer Kris Gupilan.
Vaughn refused to stop, and a traffic pursuit ensued, which led to the suspect colliding with another vehicle on the road.
Vaughn then fled on foot and was ultimately taken into custody by Wichita Police Officers.
The other driver involved in the crash received minor injuries and did not need immediate medical attention, according to Gupilan.
The Kansas Highway Patrol is investigating the circumstances surrounding the vehicle collision, to ensure transparency.
Vaughn was originally held on requested charges of aggravated assault, criminal damage to property, drug possession, flee or attempt to elude police by engaging in reckless driving and failure to stop at an accident, according to online jail records. He bonded out of jail and is due to make his initial court appearance on Nov. 27, according to the district attorney's office.
