The two suspects were driving a white minivan. Both men have a drug charge on their criminal history. In fact, a few days before the armed robbery Jennings made a court appearance for possession with intent to deliver heroin.

In this case, they robbed the victim of several items including $200 in cash. Soon after the armed robbery the victim managed to chase after their getaway car. According to a criminal complaint, they were traveling southbound on I-41 when authorities began pursuing the vehicle. The chase stretched 18 miles.

“There was snow all over the ground,” the agent on their case said. “Although the speeds weren't excessive, nonetheless the conditions were dangerous.”

Both men were arrested after they ditched their minivan. They posted bail and were placed on GPS monitoring. Both racked up multiple violations including tampering with the device.

In recent weeks they managed to cut off their bracelets.

“We feel they are extremely dangerous,” the agent said. “People are fed up with this type of behavior and it needs to stop.”

Anyone with information on his whereabouts should call U.S. Marshals at 414-297-3707.
