A fugitive wanted on multiple felony warrants led police from two agencies on a high-speed chase before officers spiked his vehicle’s tires, bringing on a prolonged early Tuesday morning standoff with SWAT in northwest Salt Lake City.
The 46-year-old suspect ran into an old, boarded-up church building at 852 W. 1500 North about 11 p.m. Monday. He was not taken into custody until 5:30 a.m. when SWAT officers moved in.
UPD Lt. Brian Lohrke said the suspect was first spotted during a multi-agency stakeout in North Salt Lake about 10:30 p.
