A Grayling man is behind bars after police say he led them on a chase through two counties.

A Trooper from the Kalkaska Post was on patrol on M-72 Saturday when he attempted to stop a vehicle for speeding.

When the Trooper turned no his lights the car continued, travelling into Crawford County.

Another State Police officer joined the pursuit and helped box the vehicle in.   After the vehicle was stopped police say the driver resisted arrest.

The 45-year-old man is charged with operating while intoxicated and fleeing and eluding, and driving on a suspended license.
