Pastor Perkins's small church van became the center of a dramatic incident when it was stolen and used in an attempted ATM theft at Oak Star Bank in Hermitage around 4:30 am on Tuesday. The brazen theft sparked a rapid response from law enforcement, leading to a high-speed chase and the eventual arrest of two suspects.
Sheriff Greg Burke of Hickory County recounted that the suspects, wanted for theft in multiple counties, were spotted by a deputy as they were attempting to break into the ATM using Pastor Perkins's van. The suspects hastily fled the scene upon the deputy's arrival, initiating a pursuit that involved law enforcement from Hickory, Dallas, and Camden Counties.
During the chase, which lasted less than an hour, the suspects reached speeds between 70 to 90 MPH, narrowly avoiding collisions, including a close call with a semi-truck. Despite several attempts by law enforcement to stop the suspects using spike strips, the van eventually lost a tire and veered into a ditch, leading to the apprehension of the two male suspects.

Sheriff Burke expressed gratitude for the collaboration among agencies and highlighted the suspects' connection to similar thefts in other counties. The investigation is ongoing, with authorities exploring possible links to recent ATM thefts reported across various locations in Missouri.
Meanwhile, Pastor Perkins lamented the loss of the van, which played a vital role in the church's activities and was uninsured beyond liability coverage. Despite the setback, Perkins remained optimistic, trusting in divine providence for the church's needs.
The incident has drawn significant attention globally, reflecting its impact and the broader implications of crime in rural communities. Law enforcement continues to work diligently to ensure justice is served while addressing the broader security concerns arising from such incidents.
