An alleged trespasser at a gas station was arrested on multiple charges after reportedly forcing the authorities on a lengthy high-speed chase while driving with flat tires.

Early in the morning on October 2, employees at a Kum & Go Gas Station and Convenience Store in Owasso, Oklahoma, saw a pick-up truck parked in front of a gas pump for hours. They noticed the driver never got out of the vehicle and did not try to put fuel in it, and they believed something was amiss. The authorities were notified to get assistance in removing him from the property.

Officers from the Owasso Police Department went to the store, and the truck was still parked at the pump with a man in the driver’s seat. They told him he would have to leave the premises, and the man stayed silent when they spoke to him. The officers eventually left when the business said they did not initially want to press charges, but they returned half an hour later when they changed their minds.
