A larceny call at the Sand Springs Walmart late Monday night leads to a police chase through west Tulsa.
The chase began around midnight when police got a call for theft from the Sand Springs Walmart. Officers caught up with 40-year-old suspect, Harley Campbell, on Highway 97 when he attempted to flee.
The chase went through west Tulsa and police say Campbell crashed into a woman driving on East 21st Street, leaving her with minor injuries.
An officer who had his tires damaged early in the pursuit was able to help make the arrest when Campbell doubled-back on his escape route. The officer dropped stop sticks that successfully damaged the fleeing driver’s tires.
After the vehicle came to a stop at Chandler Park in west Tulsa, Campbell tried to run away but was quickly arrested.
Sand Springs police said the stolen vehicle came from Tulsa County but did not have additional details available at the time of the arrest.
Campbell had a local warrant out for his arrest and was driving the stolen with a suspended driver’s license, according to Sand Springs police.
Campbell has been charged with theft, eluding police officers, endangering others, driving with a suspended license, failing to remain at an injury accident, possession of a stolen vehicle, trespassing, and running a roadblock.
