The vehicle had pulled into a private driveway, and deputies say the driver, a 40 year old Albion man, got out of the automobile and ran into a wooded area.
A passenger in the car, a 26 year old Albion women was detained by officers. Sheriff's K-9 Officer Chaos and his handler were brought in and tracked the man, who was taken into custody after a short chase.
