LANCASTER COUNTY, NEBRASKA, JUL 17 – Authorities say the chase began after a missing person alert and the suspect faces charges including flight to avoid arrest and reckless driving, with no known link to the victim.

  • Nebraska State Patrol arrested 23-year-old Gavin Thompson from Dodgeville early Wednesday after a police chase ended with a vehicle crash west of Lincoln.
  • The pursuit began after a missing endangered person alert was issued Tuesday for 67-year-old Dorinda Segebrecht from Dodgeville, whose vehicle was reported to be heading west across Nebraska.
  • Troopers found a deceased woman in the back seat of Thompson’s crashed vehicle, which lost control at a construction zone, crashed into a median, and ended up in a creek near mile marker 388.
  • Bryan Waugh indicated that the woman found in the vehicle had passed away prior to the collision, and although authorities noted the body resembled Dorinda Segebrecht, her identity has not been officially confirmed; law enforcement believes the incident was an isolated act of violence.
  • Thompson has been charged with evading law enforcement and reckless driving, and officials have stated that no connection is known to exist between him and the victim.
