Broken tail light sends Sheriff's deputies into cross-jurisdiction pursuit | Crime

A driver with a broken tail light sent Spokane County Sheriff’s Deputies into a pursuit starting at 57th near the Palouse Highway around 11 p.m. on Sunday.

Sheriff’s deputies say the driver refused to pull over for a traffic stop. The pursuit brought deputies driving along High Drive to 29th on Spokane’s South Hill where Spokane City Police assisted with spike strips set up along Bernard and Lincoln on 29th.

The strips flattened the tire of the pursued truck. The driver exited the vehicle at Latawah and 29th where he ran on-foot behind a home where he was taken into custody.

The man had a suspended license.
