A short pursuit Wednesday ended up with a Marion County Sheriff’s Office deputy’s patrol car being rammed and a long list of charges for an area man.
Around noon, Deputy Brandon Carney spotted Jonathan Michael Seback, 26, of Moss Point, and knew he had a warrant for his arrest from the Mississippi Department of Corrections. For the deputy, things got interesting when Seback noticed.
“(Carney) laid eyes on him (Seback), who got into a truck and led the deputy on a pursuit down Lumberton Road,” Chief Deputy Jamie Singley said. “They ended up going behind Ken’s Welding. He (Seback) rammed our patrol car. He tried to run from Carney and bailed out on foot behind Prine Alignment.”
Singley said there we no injuries in the pursuit.
“Seback was captured within a few minutes,” he said. “Deputies got him. There were some bystanders that tried to help us. The Columbia Police Department also came to assist. The CPD also worked the wreck for us since it involved one of our cars. We always appreciate the city responding to back us up and help.”
“Deputy Brandon Carney did an outstanding job maintaining his composure and relaying information that helped get Seback into custody,” Singley said. “(Seback) rammed Brandon’s vehicle after Brandon was able to box him in. Seback tried to push the patrol car with his truck.”
Seback remains in the Marion County Jail with bond on several of the charges, but according to Singley, he will not be released because of the MDOC charges.
According to his booking card, Seback is charged with simple assault on a law enforcement officer, possession of a controlled substance, disorderly conduct – failure to comply with the commands of a law enforcement officer, false pretenses: procuring a thing of value fraudulently and felony eluding of a law officer. n
