Arrest at Home Follows Chase

(La Porte County, IN) - A Mill Creek man is accused of driving home while leading police on a high speed chase and refusing orders to come out of the residence.

 

Jason Humberger, 41, is charged with resisting law enforcement.

 

According to La Porte County Police, Humberger ran a stop sign Friday night at 600 East and 150 North and refused to pull over.

 

Police said he traveled more than 90 miles per hour on several county roads before pulling onto his property on E. Division Road and going into his pole barn despite orders to stop.
