Through coordination and teamwork, Madison police units and their Capitol Hill counterparts were able to intercept the getaway van and arrest it. The two occupants were quickly identified as Steven Garner, a 44-year-old resident of Jasper, Alabama, and Dana Morales, 51. The duo were subsequently taken into custody and face a multitude of charges, including burglary, vehicle theft and resisting arrest.
While the arrest of the suspects is an important victory for the police, it’s not the only positive outcome of this daring pursuit. Amidst the tension and adrenaline of the chase, the officers made an astonishing discovery in the stolen Toyota Tundra: a tiny kitten with a beautiful white coat.
The kitten may be put up for adoption
This heartwarming rescue of the kitten undoubtedly provided a moment of solace in the midst of the day’s chaos. Officers immediately took steps to ensure the feline passenger’s safety and well-being, providing comfort and care as they transported him to safety.
Following these events, Madison Animal Control stepped in to care for the rescued kitten. However, the mystery of her ownership remains. An investigation is underway to determine if the suspects are the kitten’s rightful owners or if it belonged to someone else. It is also unclear whether the suspects are also the owners of the stolen vehicle, or whether they are connected to the Windsor Hills burglary.
