Columbia kidnapping and pursuit suspect has lengthy criminal record

Missouri’s Probation and Parole Board is expected to revoke the parole of a convicted Columbia felon who allegedly kidnapped a woman on Tuesday before leading Boone County Sheriff’s deputies on a high-speed pursuit involving speeds of more than 110 miles per hour.

A Boone County judge has ordered 32-year-old Alec Miles McCabe to remain jailed without bond. Boone County prosecutors have charged McCabe with four new felonies for Tuesday’s alleged incidents: second degree kidnapping, second degree robbery, felony domestic assault and resisting arrest. Our news partner KMIZ reports the victim who was allegedly kidnapped also had her wallet, birth certificate and $3,000 in cash stolen.

Tuesday night’s high-speed pursuit ended with McCabe, who was allegedly driving without headlights and without a valid license, crashing his vehicle and overturning after failing to stop for numerous stop signs.
