Shelby Township police have arrested a 23-year-old Warren man who lead them on a high-speed chase early Friday morning in a stolen vehicle.

Best scenerio for this POS would have been was during the chase he lost control of the pickup hit a bridge abutment, and the ambulance crew had to remove the pieces of body from the freeway, while not injuring anyone else. Now we have to pay for this loser to get a court appointed lawyer, and be incarcerated on our dime. Nice parenting!
