Part of the chase was captured on camera.
It all started just after midnight with a report of loud music coming from a vehicle at 4924 Northcote Street in East Chicago.
Responding officers found a man standing outside of what was later determined to be a stolen blue 2016 Nissan Rogue, playing extremely loud music, according to a release by the East Chicago police department. The male then jogged toward the vehicle, reached in his waist band and pulled out an unknown black object which resembled a firearms pistol grip, the release said.
The man then got into the car and drove in the direction of the officer, police said.
