The chase ensued after the individual allegedly stole from a store in the vicinity of Loop 820 and Rufe Snow Dr. Following reports of the suspect on the run, officers pursued him through a parking lot. As he approached the freeway, law enforcement decided to establish a perimeter.

The 48-year-old individual now faces charges of Theft, Criminal Trespass, and Evading.
