A man was seriously injured in a wreck at Hwy 41 and Virginia around 2:25 Friday morning. The wreck happened when the man was fleeing from officers who tried to pull him over for a license plate violation.
The officer attempted to stop the suspect at the intersection of Virginia and Edgar St. The suspect sped away and ran multiple red lights as he continued eastbound on Virginia. The suspect was able to distance himself from the officer until he ran the red light at Hwy 41 and Virginia. He collided with a pickup truck that was pulling a trailer. The trailer dislodged from the truck and struck a passenger van.
The driver and passenger in the truck were uninjured. There were 7 people in the van that were taken to area hospitals for treatment. The suspect was taken to a local hospital for serious injuries. His female passenger was also injured. She has provided police with a name of the driver, but police have not been able to confirm his identity at this time.
