Arrests warrants were issued today for Khalil R. Daniel, 19, and Fred D. Miles, 21, who were both indicted for aggravated robbery and grand theft of a motor vehicle, according to online court documents.
The suspects allegedly took a Kettering man’s silver Volkswagen Passat in a Sept. 21 carjacking at a BP station, 3636 Germantown St., and then led law enforcement on a chase the next day that ended in a crash in Shelby County.
Daniel and Miles are scheduled to be arraigned Dec. 1, but if they are arrested before then they likely would be arraigned sooner, according to the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office.

UPDATE @ 3:55 a.m.:
A vehicle involved in a reported carjacking in Dayton Monday night was involved in a police pursuit and crash in Shelby County on Tuesday morning.
Shelby County Sheriff Lt. Tim Bender said a deputy was engaged in a brief pursuit after spotting a vehicle driving with no taillights on Michigan Avenue in Sidney shortly after midnight Tuesday.
Bender said the chase only lasted about a quarter mile on North Vandemark Road before the Volkswagen Passat crashed. Two men inside the vehicle fled the scene, but one of the men was caught right away.
Deputies believed the other man was possibly armed, and requested assistance from Sidney police and the Ohio State Highway Patrol. State troopers also used a helicopter to search for the man by air, but both the ground and air search for the man were unsuccessful.
Bender said the vehicle was involved in a ‘violent crime’ in Dayton, but he would not specify the nature of the crime.
The license plate of the Volkswagen Passat observed by our crew at the scene in Sidney, also matched the plate of a car involved in a reported carjacking in Dayton late Monday night.
Reports indicate the car was taken at gunpoint by four men near the intersection of Germantown Street and Gettysburg Avenue in Dayton around 11 p.m.
The name of the suspect arrested in Sidney was not immediately available.
Deputies are continuing to search for the suspect who is still at large.
