After a bizarre chase that included the attempted theft of a helicopter Friday morning, a suspect is in custody.
The two-county chase began in Chanute and ended in a wooded area just east of Humboldt, where the suspect, identified as Justin Wessels, 48, Broken Arrow, Okla., was subdued by a law enforcement K-9 unit.
A press release from the Chanute Police Department, complemented with comments from Allen County Sheriff Bryan Murphy, who was a part of the chase once it left Neosho County, offered the bizarre details.
