The suspect was detained and identified as Chad Raymond Weaver(age: 48).
The Wisconsin State Patrol and Sparta Police Department also assisted with the pursuit. The Sparta Area Fire Department and Sparta Area Ambulance Service responded to the scene of the crash. No injuries were reported.
Chad Weaver was booked into the Monroe County Jail for sixth offense operating while intoxicated, felony fleeing an Officer, second degree recklessly endangering safety, and felony bail jumping. He was also issued multiple citations. The pursuit lasted less than four minutes.
