Pattonsburg Man Incarcerated on Stealing Charges

GALLATIN, MO – A Pattonsburg man is in custody on charges of stealing alleged to have taken place in Coffey and Pattonsburg.

Tanner Jones, 24, faces two felony counts of stealing a motor vehicle and one count of resisting arrest.  Those charges were filed on Monday in Daviess County.

A probable cause affidavit filed with the court alleges Jones stole a Kawasaki dirt bike and a Honda 4-wheeler.  Officers with the Daviess Office reported Jones fled on foot from his residence on Saturday when they arrived.  He was the subject of a manhunt by the sheriff’s office and the Missouri State Highway Patrol that lasted approximately 4 hours.

Jones later surrendered and is incarcerated in the Daviess-DeKalb Regional Jail.  Bond has been denied.
