(Michigan City, IN) - He allegedly turned off his headlights to try and slip away from police

but it didn’t work.  25-year old Ronald Buchanan of Michigan City is now in some hot water.

According to the LaPorte County Sheriff’s Office, there was a high-speed chase from U.S 421 to

Interstate 94 early Saturday.

 

The chase was initiated by Michigan City Police and at least one sheriff’s deputy responded to assist. At one point, police say Buchanan heading east turned off his headlights. The officer was able to see the car again when Buchanan approaching Exit 40 used his turn signals.

 

Undisclosed items were tossed out of the car and a stop was made, police said. Two other people were inside the vehicle.
