SOUTHERN COLORADO -- Colorado State troopers have arrested a man and woman after a stolen car led to a high speed chase in southern Colorado Tuesday morning.
According to troopers, somebody stole a black Honda Accord in Pueblo. When troopers attempted to pull the driver over on I-25 near Walsenburg, he did not stop. Troopers chased him southbound at speeds of 70-100 mph.
At mile marker 16, just north of Trinidad, the driver made a u-turn and went north, then exited the interstate into Trinidad.
Troopers lost sight of the car on a county road east of Trinidad, then later found it abandoned near the railroad tracks at mile marker 11.
The driver and passenger fled on foot, and troopers, with the help of Las Animas Sheriff's deputies, found them around 11 a.m. near mile marker 8 (about two miles south) on a frontage road near I-25.
A man and a woman are in custody. Troopers have not released any other information, but they said they are trying to determine who was driving.
