Good morning, Kathy.

Good morning in the news this morning, a man who police are calling a career criminal led officers on a wild chase in and out of Philadelphia on Monday night.

For several weeks, investigators say they have been searching for a 48-year-old man wanted for many crimes, including a series of commercial burglaries in and around Philadelphia.

The suspect, who was also wanted in Montgomery County, was spotted in Philadelphia on Sunday, but was able to get away from police. At least one officer suffered minor injuries when the suspect allegedly crashed his

white Honda into the officer's vehicle during the escape. He also has a history of crashing

into police vehicles in his attempt to get away. So police kind of, yeah, a career criminal

and a career crasher. Yeah. The suspect was again spotted in northeast Philadelphia Monday night, but again he was able to flee officers.

The suspect managed to travel back to Abington Township, where he was spotted sometime after 10 o'clock.

Philadelphia police were quickly notified and then began monitoring him.

The suspect led officers into Philadelphia's West Oak Lane section through Fairmount Park and into Germantown.

The suspect attempted to ram officers again with his vehicle near Rising Sun Avenue in the city's

Burlholm section. The man was able to flee his car, but officers captured him after a brief foot

chase. The suspect who has not been identified yet was taken to an area hospital to be evaluated.

Police say he is facing a long list of charges.

No other injuries have been reported.

There was some stellar.

We're looking at it right now, car chase footage, like directly over the vehicle.

Yeah, you don't get that much here.

That's like Los Angeles.
