As Deputies were on their way to serve the warrant, one of the suspects involved, Christopher Kurdys, of Madison, Indiana left the residence. Deputies knew that Mr. Kurdys had an active Felony arrest warrant. Sgt. Cody Low attempted to stop Mr. Kurdys, who then fled at a high rate of speed initiating a pursuit. Deputy John Amis successfully deployed a tire deflation device, however, Mr. Kurdys continued Southbound through North Vernon at a high rate of speed. Mr. Kurdys crashed into a pole on South State Street near the Sheriff's Office causing substantial damage. Mr. Kurdys suffered serious injuries and was flown to an Indianapolis area hospital where he is in stable condition. A large amount of illegal Narcotics and cash were located in Mr. Kurdys vehicle and Mr. Kurdys was a Habitual Traffic Violator.

At the same time as the pursuit, other Deputies went to Mr. Rossignol's residence and served the Search Warrant. At Mr. Rossignol's residence, Deputies located over 1 pound of Methamphetamine, more than $10,000 in cash, scales, packaging material, and a firearm.
