IRON MOUNTAIN, MI A man who led police on a chase across the Wisconsin/Michigan border is in the Dickinson County Jail.
Tuesday around 10:38 p.m. Florence County Sheriff’s deputies alerted the Dickinson County Sheriff’s Office they were pursuing a suspect on US-2 and he was headed to the border. Michigan officers deployed “stop sticks” on the highway near the M-95 junction. The suspect vehicle ran over the sticks and struck a patrol vehicle.
Dickinson County deputies took over pursuit of the vehicle, which slowly made its way into Iron Mountain on two tires. The suspect stopped at a residence on 5th Street and barricaded himself inside. He told police he had a child hostage and would kill the child if his demands weren’t met.
