A motion to dismiss a criminal case in an alleged law enforcement pursuit over the Memorial Day weekend is now being reviewed.
The defense for Joshua Forero made that request at a hearing Monday. A ruling could be issued Sept. 10.
Forero stands accused of leading a chase from Emporia to Franklin County after a suspicious van was reported in Emporia’s Dollar Tree parking lot. He is formally charged with aggravated battery on a law enforcement officer, aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer, interference with a law enforcement officer, flee and elude and other counts.
