A person accused of stealing a car has been arrested Saturday after leading law enforcement on a chase through Metro Detroit.
The driver reportedly led police on the Lodge Freeway and on Telegraph, sometimes reaching speeds of 120 mph. The suspect then led officers onto Southfield Freeway, officials said.
MSP say the driver ditched the vehicle on Schoolcraft near Southfield Freeway, and then led officers on a brief foot chase. The suspect -- a male whose age and identity have not been released -- has been arrested, officials said.
