A Terre Haute man was arrested after leading multiple agencies on a pursuit last night.

Jason Dawson, 32, was booked in the Vigo County Jail just before midnight.  He is charged with possession of syringe, resisting law enforcement and possession of meth.

Just before 10 p.m. a Vigo Co. Sheriff's Office deputy attempted a traffic stop on Dawson near Fairbanks Park. The suspect fled the scene in a 1998 Jeep Cherokee. The pursuit ended at N. Third and Chestnut Streets, when the suspect lost control of the vehicle and officers from the Terre Haute Police Department took him into custody.
