Police find at least a dozen purses in theft suspect's car
The chase of the red pickup truck lasted at least 45 minutes

CLARK COUNTY, Ind. —
A dramatic police chase took officers from Louisville, Kentucky through Floyd County, Indiana, and Clark County, Indiana, before ending in a cornfield.

Indiana State Police said Robert G. Ellis II was wanted in connection with a string of purse thefts in Louisville, including at least one on Thursday.

The chase of the red pickup truck lasted at least 45 minutes.

It began in the area of Fitzgerald Road and Millers Lane in Louisville.

Police followed the truck through the campus of Indiana University Southeast and into Floyds Knobs before wrapping around Grant Line Road and into Clark County.

The chase came to an end in a cornfield along W. St. Joe Road near Highway 60 in Clark County.

Once Ellis is pulled from his car, several officers are seen taking him down.

A Louisville Metro Police Department Officer and an Indiana State police trooper were seen in video hitting the man.

A spokesman for Indiana State police said it's difficult to comment on the situation not knowing the exact details on whether or not the suspect was armed with a weapon or resisting arrest.

"I cannot see the suspect that's on the ground, I do not know what the suspect is doing. I do know we have several officers that are trying to take that person into custody. But, I can tell you this, if there were any improprieties by the Indiana state police trooper our superiors will review that video and that trooper will be held accountable for it. Again, if that happened we will stand responsible for anything that happens that any of our troopers could possibly do, we'll stand responsible for that," Indiana State police Sgt. Jerry Goodin said.

Police are investigating the situation to see if proper procedures and protocols were followed.

After the chase, police pulled at least a dozen purses from the suspect's vehicle.

I hope the officers don't get jammed up because of this. If you go to about the 1:10 mark you see an officer on the right side of the scrum reach over and stop the officer who is wailing on the perp.

That corn was really short for this time of year.

Stealing purses seems to be bad for your health as of late.
