Topeka police arrested a man Wednesday after a brief vehicle and foot chase through an East Topeka neighborhood. A stolen white Ford sedan was spotted at S.E. 6th and Branner just before 5 p.m. When officers tried to stop the car, the driver drove east on S.E. 6th, Sgt. Josh Klamm said. A short time later, the man ditched the car at S.E. 7th and Lawrence and ran back toward the west. Officers cornered the man in a yard in the 600 block of S.E. Chandler, Klamm said. Klamm said the Crown Victoria, which appeared to be a former police interceptor with a driver’s-side spotlight, was stolen in Rossville. Officers at S.E. 7th and Lawrence searched the vehicle and appeared to test material found inside as possible drugs. The man’s identity and further details haven’t been released.
