 A man is in custody after leading police on a high speed chase into western Vigo County early this morning.

According to scanner traffic, Cameron J. Aue, 33, was apprehended in a cornfield in New Goshen after crashing a car into a ditch and then fleeing on foot.

Vigo County Sheriff's deputies assisted Terre Haute Police Department officers with a K-9 after using stop sticks during the pursuit, which reached speeds exceeding 100 mph.

The chase began around 2 a.m. when a Terre Haute Police Department officer attempted to pull the suspect over for an alleged headlight violation at Third and Cherry Streets. He fled the scene in a red Ford Mustang,  westbound into West Terre Haute, continuing on US 150 into New Goshen. 

Ultimately, all four tires were deflated and the suspect eventually lost control of the vehicle , crashing into a ditch before fleeing on foot. Once he was apprehended, he requested an ambulance due to injuries suffered in the crash, as well as reportedly being bitten by the K-9 during the foot chase. He was transported to a local hospital for treatment before being taken to the jail.

Aue's drivers license had previously been revoked in Illinois.
