Neighboring police agencies were alerted about 4:20 p.m. Wednesday as a vehicle eluding St. Louis police crossed the Jefferson Barracks Bridge on I-255 eastbound in the westbound lanes into Illinois.

The vehicle, a black Lexus four-door, continued the wrong way on I-255 with flat tires due to driving over spike strips before the driver eventually bailed on foot on Route 3 in Dupo.

Police soon captured the suspect, who is wanted following an incident in St. Louis, in the area of Tommy Drive in Dupo.
