15-year-old accused in 100 mph stolen car chase in Reidsville
ROCKINGHAM COUNTY, N.C. (WGHP) — A 15-year-old is in custody after a chase involving a stolen car on Monday morning, according to the Rockingham County Sheriff's Office. In the early morning hours of Monday, Rockingham County deputies got into a chase with a stolen Kia Sedona out of Caswell County. Investigators say the chase began on NC 87 near the Caswell County line and went into Reidsville at speeds of over 100 mph. Deputies took the teen into custody with the assistance of the Reidsville Police Department after he lost control of the car and crashed into a telephone pole on Price Street in Reidsville. The teen was not hurt as a result of the crash and neither were any officers during the chase. A juvenile petition for the teen suspect was obtained and he is in the custody of juvenile justice, where a secure custody hearing will take place later this week for crimes committed in Rockingham County. The teen will also be facing charges from Caswell County as well as probation violations in Guilford County. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

A third sheriff's office in New Hampshire is looking to partner with ICE on federal immigration enforcement
Get N.H. Morning Report A weekday newsletter delivering the N.H. news you need to know right to your inbox. Enter Email Sign Up While critics of these arrangements argue they could stoke fear among immigrant communities and undermine local law enforcement priorities, Republican Governor Kelly A. Ayotte has encouraged police agencies to cooperate with ICE, and she has called for state lawmakers to prohibit municipalities from adopting local policies that seek to impede such cooperation. Advertisement New Hampshire is a regional outlier. It's the only New England state in which any sheriff's office or state police force has applied for the ICE task force model. While six municipal police departments in New Hampshire (Colebrook, Gorham, Ossipee, Pittsburgh, Troy, and Candia) have pursued such agreements, only one elsewhere in New England (Wells, Maine) has done so, and it has Advertisement Major Christopher Bashaw, of the Rockingham County Sheriff's Office, said his team supports Ayotte's position on this topic. If approved, then up to 30 deputies would be able to receive immigration-related training and aid in enforcement, he said. Bashaw said the impact on day-to-day operations is expected to be minimal, as deputies anticipate going about their normal duties and holding people who are found to have active immigration detainers. 'We do not anticipate any changes to our current duties and have no intention of pursuing detainees solely based on immigration status detainers,' he said. The aggressive immigration crackdown being pursued by the Trump administration has recently resulted in high-profile errors. American citizens have been wrongly detained in Bashaw said he doesn't see the sheriff's office as being involved directly in the deportation process itself. 'Our understanding is that the ICE detainers are the mechanism to bring the individuals before the courts to ensure they receive due process related to their matter,' he said. 'If at any time the Rockingham County Sheriff's Office takes issue with the manner with how the program is being implemented, we can discontinue our partnership and participation.'
