A 32-year-old Kingfisher woman found hiding in a dumpster Jan. 8 after a highspeed chase with a sheriff’s deputy was charged Tuesday with three felony offenses in Kingfisher County District Court.

Audrey Markus, also known as Audrey Langford, pleaded not guilty Wednesday to endangering others while attempting to elude a police officer, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle and knowingly concealing stolen property and a misdemeanor charge of removing a proper license plate and affixing an improper plate.

She remains jailed at the Kingfisher County Justice Center on $10,000 bond.

Markus allegedly was spotted driving a Toyota Tundra pickup truck reported stolen in Logan County by Kingfisher County Deputy James McNew.

A high-speed pursuit ensued when McNew activated his lights and siren to stop the truck and Markus accelerated and sped out of town on S.H. 33., according to McNew’s report.

After several unsuccessful attempts to stop the truck, Markus allegedly bailed from the vehicle as it rolled into a ditch along a county road and was later found hiding in a nearby dumpster, according to a sheriff’s office report.

Kingfisher County Sheriff Dennis Banther said his office has identified a male suspect whom McNew observed pumping gas into the truck at Casey’s General Store in Kingfisher before the pursuit began.

Banther said the man was captured on the store’s security camera exiting the truck and pumping gas into the tank, but was not in the truck when the pursuit began.

“We’re anticipating charges against that person as soon as we obtain a copy of the video footage,” Banther said.
