Sunday Garvin County units were dispatched to a grow operation near Maysville.
Suspects fled the scene and ended up ditching their vehicle at Jackson and Green Avenue in Purcell early Sunday morning.
Garvin County units were reportedly in pursuit.
An alert was issued to Purcell residents to remain sheltered with their doors and windows locked.
Some of the suspects have been apprehended.
Last week, deputies from the Cleveland County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) arrested two suspects who were caught fleeing the scene of a burglary at a grow operation near Noble.
On July 11, just before 3 a.m., CCSO dispatch received a call from an alarm company reporting live camera footage of two male suspects attempting to break into a grow operation on Banner Road. The company also observed two vehicles on the property, a white four-door Toyota sedan and a brown Kia Soul. When deputies arrived, the Toyota was gone, but the Kia Soul was parked on the west side of the building with occupants inside.
When the first deputy and a Noble Police Department patrol unit arrived on the scene, the occupants of the Kia Soul began to drive forward. Despite the deputy’s verbal commands to stop, they chose to continue and fled the scene. A pursuit ensued, as the driver accelerated past marked patrol units traveling north.
Near Cemetery Road the driver headed east, at which point a CCSO deputy engaged in a Tactical Vehicle Intervention (TVI) maneuver, ending the pursuit.
Once the car was stopped, the passenger, identified as Devante Houston, exited the vehicle and attempted to flee the scene, after a brief foot pursuit, he was arrested by Noble Police Officers. The driver, Kyron Thompson, was arrested on scene.
The vehicle was impounded and placed on investigative hold. Both, Houston and Thompson were transported to the Cleveland County Detention Center without incident.
Houston is charged with burglary in second degree, conspiracy, possession of burglary implements and obstruction. Thompson is charged with burglary in second degree, conspiracy and eluding.
