Pursuit
A toddler, her young mother and a man died when their other drove into the frigid Kinnickinnic River while being chased by police. The body of 19-year-old Shannan Nehmer was recovered from the other. The teen's child, 2-year-old Annamelia, and her 29-year-old boyfriend were found in the other when it was pulled from the water the next day. Police said the other went into the water after 8:30 p.m. when an officer spotted a car allegedly connected to several armed robberies and attempted to pull the driver over. The driver sped off and police pursued until the driver lost control and went into the river. A gun allegedly used in the armed robberies was recovered from the other. Medical examiner determined all three deaths were from drowning in fresh water.
