Arrest in Flock Camera Related Chase

(La Porte, IN) - A Flock camera has led to charges against a man accused of fleeing from police in La Porte.

 

Kevin Reading, 29, was in the area of Ohio St. and Boyd Boyd Boulevard last week when a Flock camera read his license plate.

 

His vehicle information was in the system for Reading having a suspended driver’s license, police said.

 

Police said officers responding to the Flock camera alert located the vehicle on Fox St., triggering a pursuit when Reading refused to pull over for a traffic stop.

 

According  to court documents, Reading managed to drive around two officers who pulled in front of him.

 

He was on 10th St. when he veered onto Farrand Ave. and stopped in front of a home.  Police said Reading did not obey the officers, who had to force him out of the vehicle.

 

He’s charged in La Porte Circuit Court with driving on a suspended license, resisting law enforcement and possession of methamphetamine.
