(Devils Lake, ND) -- A Fargo man is in custody after leading several departments on a chase after he stole a vehicle Saturday afternoon.
The North Dakota Highway Patrol says at 12:19 p.m, troopers engaged in a pursuit of the stolen car and attempted to stop Arsenio James on US Highway 2, approximately 11 miles east of Rugby.
James fled eastbound on US Highway 2 for roughly 47 miles. Then, despite the car being successfully spiked by the use of tire deflation devices on two separate occasions, he continued to drive away. The trooper ended the pursuit by performing a pursuit intervention technique causing the car to enter the south ditch.
James was taken into custody without further incident and transported to the Lake Region Correction Center. Charges are pending.
