Dayton man gets 4 years in home invasion that leads to multi-county, high-speed chase

As part of his plea charges of kidnapping and failure to comply with an order or signal of a police officer were dismissed.

Joy and Sharon K. Rieder, 30, of Riverside, forced their way into a house Feb. 3 in the 2300 block of Fauver Avenue in Dayton. A man who was housesitting told police he recognized Joy and Rieder but not two others with them, according to an affidavit filed in Dayton Municipal Court.

“Joy held him at gunpoint as the others stole two large flat screen televisions,” an affidavit read. “Joy then stole his wallet and his cellular phone before all the suspects fled in a black late model Jeep.”

The homeowner gave officers a description of the TVs. She identified Rieder as her daughter who was in a relationship with Joy, according to court records.

The next day an officer saw a black Jeep driven by Rieder and occupied by Joy. The officer activated the cruiser’s lights and sirens, but the Jeep did not stop.

“They refused and fled at a dangerously high rate of speed, violating numerous traffic laws and placing the motoring public at a substantial risk,” an affidavit read.

An aviation crew from the Ohio State Highway Patrol was in the area on an unrelated incident and took over the pursuit.

The Jeep reached speeds of more than 100 mph before stopping in the 400 block of Merrick Drive in Beavercreek, according to Dayton police.

Rieder is incarcerated in the Ohio Reformatory for Women in Marysville after O’Connell sentenced her on June 17 to nine months in prison. Her license also was suspended for three years.

Rieder pleaded guilty June 3 to failure to comply with the order or signal of a police officer. Charges of kidnapping and aggravated burglary were dismissed. With credit for 146 days spent in the Montgomery County Jail, Rieder is expected to be released Oct. 31, according to Ohio Department of Rehabilitation & Correction online records.
