NWI.com reprots: "A LaPorte County sheriff's officer began following 23 year old Nikko J. Shack about 12:10 a.m. in the southbound lanes of the 5000 north block of U.S. 35, police said.
A sheriff's deputy gave chase, and officers deployed a tire-deflation device near Pine Lake Avenue and Ind.
The device punctured the two front tires of the car Shack was driving. He was removed from the vehicle and arrested, police said.
A deputy later found a bag in the 1300 block of Pine Lake Avenue that contained marijuana, police said.
The officer who attempted to stop Shack was working with the LaPorte County DUI Task Force, which is funded with federal money administered by the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute.
LaPorte city police assisted with the arrest of Shack, officials said."
