Police arrested two men after a high-speed chase that extended from Tulsa to Owasso - and back again. An officer patrolling near 31st Street and 145th East Avenue noticed a suspicious vehicle with two people inside around 10:30 Thursday night.

When the officer got close, the driver sped off.

Tulsa Police chased the car out of town to Owasso where Owasso Police got involved. The driver then turned around and came back to Tulsa. Police backed off the chase when the fleeing Toyota Camry starting going over 80 mph on 51st Street.

"We allowed the helicopter to follow the car to where it stopped here, at which time we had several cars in the area, police cars that set up a perimeter and ultimately apprehended both occupants of the vehicle," said Corporal Mark Groves.

Police eventually stopped the car on a neighborhood street at 43rd Street North near Delaware, and the two people inside ran off.  Police arrested both men.  At least one of the men had an outstanding warrant.

The suspects' names have not yet been released.
