Two Maryland suspects are in the Rappahannock-Shenandoah-Warren Regional Jail (RSW) on a batch of charges, including felony hit-and-run, felony child endangerment, and felony possession of a gun, and felony possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute after an early-morning high-speed chase on John Marshall Highway.
A press release from Front Royal Police Chief Kahle Magalis states that in the early morning hours of April 16, 2022, a patrol officer attempted to stop a speeding vehicle in the 1100 block of John Marshall Highway that was traveling 73-MPR in a 25-MPH zone, according to the officer’s RADAR speed measurement.
As the officer attempted to stop the vehicle, the driver accelerated, continuing eastbound on John Marshall Highway at speeds exceeding110-mph. Shortly after the pursuit ensued, the vehicle’s driver collided with the rear-end of another car traveling eastbound on John Marshall Highway. Following the crash, the suspect’s airbags were deployed and the vehicle came to a stop in the 2600 block of John Marshall Highway.
The driver, Devin Miales, 24, of Baltimore, Maryland, and a female passenger Jamiah Mills, 23, of Randallstown, Maryland were arrested without incident, according to the release. Shortly after the vehicle was stopped, two 2-year-old children were found in the back seat. The FRPD officer found that both were improperly restrained in their car seats. Warren County Fire and Rescue responded to the scene and transported the children to Warren Memorial Hospital for additional medical evaluation. Warren County Department of Social Services was called in to assist with the children.
