Troopers caught up to the suspect in a McDonald's parking lot, near West 61st Street and 4th West Avenue.

The driver, who troopers say is from Texas, was arrested and transported to a Tulsa hospital to receive medical attention.

OHP is not yet releasing the man's identity. There's no word yet on why he was running.
