Early Sunday morning just after midnight, officers were in the parking lot in the 3000 block of South Minnesota Avenue when they heard a crash.

Final investigation showed that Austin Johnson stole a cash box from a business sharing the parking lot. A female witness tried to stop him and was knocked down by the suspect’s vehicle as he fled. She was treated at a local hospital.

Johnson was arrested for theft, assault, DWI, and leaving the scene of an accident. His friend, 22 year old Christopher Rave was arrested for DWI.
