1 injured, in custody after Dayton pursuit ends in crash

DAYTON — One man is in custody after a pursuit ends in a crash early Saturday morning in Dayton.

Ohio State Highway Patrol Troopers tell our crews they responded to a fiery crash at US-35 and Germantown Street around 2:15 a.m.

Fire crews were called to the scene and quickly extinguished the vehicle fire.

Troopers say the male driver was involved in an earlier pursuit with police.

The male was put into custody and taken to an area hospital for non-life-threatening injuries.

Investigations lead crews to believe he was driving under the influence of alcohol.

The suspect had a suspended license and was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash.
