A short pursuit ended when the suspect driver ran the stop sign at East 19th Street and vehicle went into the air; once the vehicle hit the ground, the vehicle lost control and went into a yard located in the 1800 block of North Layman where it struck a tree which caused the vehicle to roll onto its side.. The suspect vehicle continued to roll through the yard and eventually hit a Mustang parked in the driveway of the Layman location. After striking the parked vehicle, the Cadillac collided with the front of the house.

The suspect exited the vehicle and ran toward the front door of the house where the homeowner was standing to investigate the damage. The suspect pushed the homeowner and entered his house; where the suspect and homeowner begin to struggle in the living room. The suspect was able to break free from the homeowner’s grasp and continued to flee into the homeowner’s house and into the homeowner’s bathroom.  After several minutes the suspect emerged from the bathroom and was immediately taken into custody by Officer Hiser and several responding officers.
