MERCER COUNTY, Ky. (LEX 18) — A Harrodsburg couple, who was already heading to jail, earned themselves additional charges after a short police chase in Mercer County.

Police were already searching for 50-year-old Kenny Vinyard and 37-year-old Jennifer Miller, who were each wanted on seven active warrants.

The two were spotted in Mercer County around 11 p.m. on Friday and deputies attempted to pull them over.

But, according to police, they sped away and led four law enforcement agencies from Mercer County and Boyle County on a chase.

The couple was arrested a short time later and booked in the Boyle County Jail on a long list of charges.
