A man from Pittsburgh is facing charges after he led police on a chase that started in Mercer County and ended in Prospect.
The incident happened Sunday morning just before 9 a.m. on I-79 near the I-80 interchange, which is in Springfield Township.
Police attempted to pull over 20-year-old Leon Lewis of Pittsburgh for a traffic stop. That’s when Lewis took off and led police on a chase the entire way to an unnamed rural road in Prospect.
When police tried to take Lewis into custody, he allegedly resisted arrest and punched a state police officer.
He was eventually subdued and taken to the Mercer County Jail.
