A vehicle associated with a Camas crime spree was involved in a police pursuit late Monday night in Oregon.
Deputies with the Washington County Sheriff’s Office in Oregon spotted a 2002 Nissan Altima traveling at a high rate of speed in Beaverton just before 11 p.m. Monday, Detective Robert Rookhuyzen said.
The deputy tried to stop the Nissan, but the driver did not pull over and a pursuit ensued, Rookhuyzen said. The deputy lost sight of the vehicle, but about 15 minutes later found it abandoned, he said. Deputies searched the area with police dogs but did not find the driver.
The vehicle was reported stolen in Vancouver on Feb. 6 and tied to a recent crime spree in Camas, Rookhuyzen said. Inside of the car, deputies found a cash register from a Camas business and paperwork linked to Camas, Rookhuyzen.
