A western Kansas man hospitalized following a Sunday afternoon car accident was driving a stolen 2008 Dodge Charger.

Sherman County Sheriff Burton Pianalto told Hays Post, “Floyd Clifford Coates Jr. was driving out of Rawlins County when a Sherman County deputy spotted the car. The Deputy started a high speed chase that continued through a wheat field and into Wallace County.”

At one point Sheriff Pianalto helped block the road contributing to the driver losing control of the vehicle. Coates Jr. was briefly hospitalized in Goodland. He is now being held without bond on various charges including DUI, Possession of Meth; Possession of Stolen Property; Reckless Driving and a Parole Violation. The Kansas Highway Patrol also worked the accident.
