A sheriff’s deputy arrived on the scene to find two vehicles north of the intersection. One of the vehicles started to leave and drove around the squad car that had its emergency lights activated. The deputy drove after the vehicle until it suddenly stopped at the intersection of State Road 15 and County Road 900 North.
The driver, who turned out to be Miguel Malagon, was taken into custody without incident.
During the investigation police determined that Malagon had rammed his vehicle into his wife’s to force it off the road. The incident is believed to be related to a domestic incident since the two are separated.
The Kosciusko County Prosecutor’s Office has preliminarily charged Miguel Malagon with felony intimidation, criminal recklessness with a vehicle, felony fleeing law enforcement and invasion of privacy (violation of a protective order). They have not yet set bail on Malagon at the time of this release.
