LOCAL - Police Chase Man for Writing Bad Check

A police chase and subsequent crash shut down part of West Grand River in Genoa Township Monday afternoon. The man was suspected of writing a bad check to a local Best Buy location so police ran after him in the parking lot. The man first dragged an officer a few feet in the parking lot. The man fled in a gray car and was chased onto I-96 where he exited onto Grand River. The suspect attempted to turn the car around, but crashed into a police cruiser and an unmarked detective car. The driver was injured when his head hit his windshield.

He faces charges of fleeing and eluding, and most likely, check fraud.
