Arrests in Late Morning Police Chase

(La Porte County, IN) - A high speed chase in La Porte County late this morning ended on Interstate 94.

 

Two people were taken into custody about 10:30 a.m. at the 39 mile marker after stop sticks flattened two tires on the vehicle.

 

So far, police have not confirmed what triggered the pursuit which went from Fail Road onto U.S. 20 then westbound to Interstate 94.  However, there was talk of a stolen Chrysler 300 between police and a 911 dispatcher during the chase.   

 

Initial reports indicate at least four police vehicles were involved in the chase and the stop sticks were placed at U.S. 20 and U.S. 35. The vehicle apparently traveled on two flat tires for about a mile on Interstate 94 before coming to a stop.

 

We’ll provide more details as further information is released by local authorities.
