SIDNEY – A 24-year-old area man has been charged in a car theft and kidnapping incident that occurred in the parking lot of a downtown business in January. The indictment was handed down Thursday by the Shelby County grand jury.

Also, a Chicago man who led authorities on a high-speed car chase was charged and remains incarcerated at the Shelby County Jail on multiple charges. Those indicted will be arraigned on Thursday at 10 a.m. in Shelby County Common Pleas Court.

Derrick Jovahn Collins, 24, at large, has been charged with kidnapping, a second-degree felony, and grand theft of a motor vehicle, a fourth-degree felony, according to online court records. A warrant has been issued for his arrest.

At 8:11 a.m. Jan. 12, Collins allegedly entered a 2000 Cadillac while it was parked next to the Dollar General store at 166 W. Court St. The vehicle owner, Douglas W. Leslie, 61, 709 Lynn St., had left his seven-year-old son in the car when it was stolen.

At 9:50 a.m., the car was recovered in the 100 block of Pike Street. The vehicle was towed from the scene. The portion of the police report made public did not provide details regarding an arrest, passenger safety or condition of the vehicle.

In another indictment, Willie Thomas Price Jr., 33, Chicago, Illinois, has been charged with two counts of possession of drugs, third and fourth-degree felonies; having weapons while under disability, a third-degree felony; failure to comply with the signal or order of a police officer, a third-degree felony; receiving stolen property, a fourth-degree felony; and operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, a first-degree misdemeanor.

On Feb. 10, Price was arrested at 4:50 p.m. near Piqua by the Ohio State Patrol (OSP) following a high-speed pursuit along Interstate 75 that began in Auglaize County.

According to OSP Lt. Scott Carrico of the Wapakoneta Post, the pursuit began after Price failed to stop when troopers attempted to pull over his vehicle with no license plates in Auglaize County. The chase in excess of 100 miles per hour ended at the Miami-Shelby County line at mile-marker 88 when the fleeing vehicle drove over road-spikes.

Price allegedly was found with a bulk amount of marijuana and firearms stolen out of Gary, Indiana. Two previous gun-related convictions for Price in Chicago were noted in the indictment. No one was injured during the incident. He is currently being held on a $20,000 cash bond.
