Deputies caught a teenager who they say lead them on a high-speed chase and stole from people in two counties.
The Vernon County Sheriff says deputies arrested 17-year-old Justin Blaha of La Farge on June 16. Investigators say he burglarized at least one home and one business. Sheriff Gene Cary says Blaha lead a Union Center police officer on a short high-speed chase in Juneau County earlier that day. The officer ended the chase without catching the driver. Investigators found the vehicle at a home in La Farge. They executed a search warrant, and found several stolen items and illegal narcotics.
Blaha isn't charged in the case.
