Elderly woman from Colorado Springs leads Wyoming police on car chase

A 76-year-old woman from Colorado Springs led Wyoming police on a pursuit on Interstate 25 that exceeded 100 mph at times before her vehicle was disabled by tire spikes.

The Wyoming Highway Patrol says the incident started about 12:25 p.m. Thursday when a trooper clocked a Volkswagen traveling 96 mph in an 80 mph zone on Interstate 25 near Kaycee.

The vehicle did not stop and eventually merged onto eastbound I-90 where police deployed the spikes.

No one was hurt, and Mary Sedlacek was taken into custody without incident. She was preliminarily charged with reckless driving and eluding a police officer.
