WINONA, Minn. – The driver of a stolen car who fled after a wreck on Grand Street didn’t have far to go, police said. Five days after the wreck Joel James Coleman III, 18, was arrested at his home — also on Grand Street and only a few houses from the wreck. The driver and a companion in the stolen car had fled the wreck and disappeared in a backyard just as a pursuing police officer pulled up in a squad car. The officer gave chase, but the pair were nowhere to be found. This was early Friday. About the second person: There has been no arrest.
