Two Charged After Chase Through Paducah

Two Illinois residents are facing numerous charges in Paducah after reportedly fleeing from officers.

On Tuesday, officers with the Paducah Police Department were called to Cairo Road after a vehicle that was allegedly fleeing from the Massac County Sheriff's Department, crashed into a pole while leaving the interstate. 

The driver of the vehicle, 35-year-old Desmond Jiles, allegedly fled from the vehicle but was caught a short time later. Officers say that Jiles provided a false name, and was later found to have an arrest warrant for an escape from Cook County, Illinois. 

The passenger in the vehicle, 37-year-old Amber Sanato, was cited for possession of marijuana. 

Jiles was charged with first degree wanton endangerment, first degree criminal mischief, providing a false name, leaving the scene of an accident, and being a fugitive from another state.
