Kellow was booked into the Harris County Jail on Monday. He also faces a charge of aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon.
On July 20, 2022, deputies had been chasing Kellow and at least five other suspects after they allegedly stole the Jeep from a carwash off Bammel North Houston near Vickie Springs.
A deputy on patrol spotted the stolen vehicle near Greens and Imperial Valley and tried to pull it over. Instead of stopping, investigators said the Jeep sped through an intersection, went through the light, and ended up losing control and crashing into a tree.

In total, four people, including Kellow, were ejected from the stolen Jeep. Two of them died, investigators said.
Dennis Stewart and Damon Parker were identified by authorities as the two who died.
Video from the scene shows the damage left in the front yards of homes on Imperial Valley Drive. Debris from the crash was scattered across the ground, and a tree was on its side.
The Jeep nearly went through the front of one of the homes. It appeared that the front door of one home sustained some damage.
