A man accused of leading police on a chase in Warren County with a stolen vehicle and then hiding in a storm drain in Miamisburg is facing charges.

Jeffrey Scott Bostick, 34, of Kettering, was charged with obstructing official business and receiving stolen property, according to Warren County Court records. He also was cited for driving under suspension by Springboro police.

Around 9:30 a.m. Monday, Bostick was reportedly driving a Buick Lacrosse that was reported as stolen out of Miami Twp. During a traffic stop on Interstate 75 in Clearcreek Twp., Bostick drove away, according to court documents.
