A 19-year-old Illinois man was arrested over the weekend in Fawn River Township after authorities observed him driving a car in excess of 150 miles per hour.

A pursuit of the driver started Sunday night on the Indiana Toll Road, where Indiana State Police attempted to pull over the eastbound driver. He exited at the Howe/LaGrange interchange and proceeded north into St. Joseph County.

The driver headed east onto Fawn River Road then south onto Kime Road, where the vehicle crashed in the 70000 block.
