Martin  was taken into custody after eventually getting stuck in the snow at an unplowed intersection near a housing complex, Indiana State Police Sgt. Matt Ames said, noting the suspect was also  found to be wanted on multiple warrants.

Speeds reached just under 100 mph.

"The pursuit traveled through several city streets with the driver disregarding stop signs and traffic lights,"  Ames added.

According to the report, the pursuit began when ISP  Putnamville Trooper Brad Fyfe  was patrolling on US 41 near Hulman Street.  He initiated a traffic stop on the suspect vehicle for an equipment violation around 10:30 p.m.

Once stopped in the snow at the intersection of Wheeler Avenue and Krumbhaar, police were able to take the suspect into custody. Martin reportedly appeared to be impaired at the scene, but refused to submit to a certified chemical test.

A winter storm warning is underway in the Terre Haute area Monday night, with heavy snowfall and icy conditions making  travel treacherous.

The storm is expected to bring a total snow amount of 8-12 inches across central Indiana.

"The snow -covered roads, low visibility, and blowing and drifting snow -- along with cold wind chills near and below zero -- will make driving conditions dangerous,"  a spokesman for the U.S. National Weather Service in Indianapolis explained.

City and county offices will be closed Tuesday.  Meanwhile, local officials are urging residents to stay home, if possible.

Emergency crews have responded to numerous weather-related accidents. Around 10 p.m., Indiana State Police Sgt. Matt Ames said troopers from the Putnamville district responded to 22 motorists assists,13 slide offs, 20 property damage crashes and four crashes with personal injury.

If you must go out,  Ames offers some advice for handling the slick roads.

"Reduce your speed, don’t drive distracted, turn your headlights on, and buckle up," he said.
