Officers took the man later identified as 32-year-old Fernando Gilbert-Olivarez into custody. He was arrested for theft, motor vehicle theft, and eluding. He was also booked on a warrant for a previous eluding charge. Investigators learned that the woman who was removed from the SUV was with Gilbert-Olivarez, according to Lone Tree PD.
