After an hour-long Houston car chase that spanned two counties, a suspect was arrested on Monday afternoon.

The chase started at about 1pm, local time, when Houston police decided to investigate suspicious activity inside of a white van.  As the police officer approached the van, the suspect fled.

Several police officers followed and a high speed chase
was underway.  The van weaved in and out of traffic, almost struck a motorcyclist, and put pedestrians and motorists at risk.  The chase came to an end when Houston police followed the van into a parking garage at the Houston Mall.

The suspect then jumped from the top of a parking garage onto a platform. Police were able to subdue him and placed him under arrest.
