Before the officer could turn on his lights and sirens the driver made a quick turn onto Old Lane Street, lost control and crashed into the side of a house.
The driver then ran off, but was quickly captured by the officer.
Marijuana was found inside the suspect's car.
No injuries have been reported.
The suspect's name has yet been released.
