Pleasant Grove Police say a 33-year-old man led them on a chase through two cities, with four children in his minivan.

Another driver in Pleasant Grove flagged down officers and said the driver of the minivan was going through several traffic lights and stop signs, without stopping.

Police chased the minivan down into American Fork, until it crashed into another car.

Officers arrested the driver, Spencer Albiston. Police said he faces multiple charges.

"There were four kids in the car, he has four kids, they have more, but there were four kids in the car, no one was hurt," said Sgt. Carl Nielson, Pleasant Grove Police Department.

The children were taken to the Pleasant Grove Police Department to be picked up by their mother.

Police are investigating if alcohol was involved.
