(South Bend, IN) - It took a crash during a police chase to catch a murder suspect. The man was first spotted here in LaPorte County.

Yesterday, authorities say 31-year old Anthony Malone was seen by U.S Marshals in a vehicle near Hudson Lake. He refused to pull over. After crossing into St. Joseph County, police say the South Bend man crashed into a utility pole.

He was grabbed on a warrant for murder. Malone allegedly gunned down a 24-year-old man last month at a gas station in South Bend.
