SUMMIT COUNTY, Utah — One suspect was arrested Thursday evening after leading police on a chase with speeds over 100 miles per hour in the Kamas area.
Officials said they were tipped off that an auto theft suspect with a warrant was in the area picking up a final check from work.
When deputies attempted contact with the suspect, they drove away, heading Westbound on State Route 248 in a stolen vehicle.
