**Men in Custody After Daring Robbery and Chase Through Mississippi, Dressed as Women: MPD Reports**
**Jackson, MS** – In a bizarre twist to a reported robbery, two men are in custody after leading police on a wild chase through Mississippi while allegedly dressed as women. The men, who haven’t been named yet, were apprehended late Tuesday evening following a daylight heist at a local boutique that left witnesses stunned.
According to the Jackson Police Department (MPD), the duo entered the store equipped with wigs and dresses, creating a scene that seemed straight out of a movie. Eyewitness accounts describe how the men allegedly brandished a weapon and demanded cash and merchandise from the startled employees. “I couldn’t believe my eyes. They looked like they were from a completely different world,” said one shaken customer who watched the events unfold.
After fleeing the scene on foot, the pair attempted to evade capture in a getaway vehicle. However, the MPD quickly responded to the call for assistance and initiated a pursuit. The chase, characterized by high speeds and sharp turns, left several onlookers in disbelief as police pursued the suspects through various city streets. “It was chaos. One moment, you couldn’t believe they were dressed like that, and the next, you were just hoping everyone stayed safe,” recalled another witness.
The chase finally ended when police successfully boxed in the suspect’s vehicle near a local diner. Officers quickly took the suspects into custody without further incident. Fortunately, no injuries were reported during the robbery or the chase.
The MPD is reminding the public that crime can take on many forms and that this unusual incident should serve as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of criminal activity. Charges are pending as the investigation continues.
