(La Porte County, IN) - There was a several mile police chase in La Porte County this morning at about 11 a.m. in the City of La Porte.

 

Police tried pulling over a driver who accelerated and soon was traveling southbound on A Street, reportedly at 90 miles per hour near the La Porte Municipal Airport. At one point, the pursuit ventured over to U.S. 35 then later on 400 South heading eastbound all before ultimately ending in the area of 800 East and Indiana 104.

 

Right now, the initial investigation indicates the driver fled because he had a suspended license.

 

La Porte Police have also not made available any details yet on this chase, nor on a chase last Thursday evening.

 

According to witnesses, it appears that pursuit went past Kingsbury and through La Porte before ending just outside the city limits on U.S. 35 near Pine Lake.
