MOSCOW, Idaho — Authorities say a man fleeing Moscow police in Idaho after a traffic stop crashed and rolled when he crossed into Washington.

But police say moments later he was spotted running across a field.

The Moscow-Pullman Daily News reports that the man was taken into custody after a short chase.

His name hasn’t been released.
