Madison County Outlaw Ambush Sparks Prolonged Pursuit
An armed confrontation near Merrick and a highway robbery last Thursday triggered a lengthy chase through Madison County. Deputies exchanged fire with fleeing robbers, and a tense ambush at a railroad cut five miles west of town led to heavy gunfire as Sheriff Mitchell demanded surrender. Police say about fifty shots were fired before the confrontation subsided, with details of injuries or captures not fully clear.
