A warrant has been issued for Deepwater man that failed to return to jail after being treated at the hospital.

Charles Shane Spellmeyer, age 51, was allegedly the driver of a motorcycle that sideswiped a vehicle as the driver was pulling into his driveway on July 28, 2020. According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, Spellmeyer was ejected during the crash and shortly thereafter left the scene. The truck suffered damage from the rear bumper to the front bumper on the passenger’s side.

Spellmeyer was being held on Class E Felonies for Leaving the Scene of an Accident Causing Property Damage exceeding $1,000 and Driving While Revoked or Suspended; and a driving-related misdemeanor.

On October 22, 2020 the court granted Spellmeyer furlough to receive medical care in Columbia with the condition that he return to jail after being released from the hospital. The court issued a warrant for Spellmeyer’s arrest on October 28 after being informed that he had been released from the hospital and failed to return to the Pettis County Jail. The court has ordered no bond.

Spellmeyer’s next court proceeding is pending at Pettis County Circuit Court.
