Foot Pursuit Leads to Capture

(Porter County, IN) - La Porte County Police were involved in a capture of at least one person during a foot chase near Interstate 94 late Tuesday morning.

 

Details about the chase are limited at this time, but authorities say it appears a car was involved along with one man, who ran from police northbound into a wooded area between Chesterton and Michigan City.  Police K-9 units were used in the pursuit of the man, and apprehended him within a short time.

 

At one point, the westbound lanes of Interstate 94 were shut down because of the situation triggered by a motor vehicle pursuit. As more details become available, we will update  this story.
