Man leads police on 18-MPH tractor chase

An Indiana man allegedly led police on a slow-speed, hours-long tractor chase that crossed the state line.

Monday evening in Decatur, Indiana, 20-year-old Dustin D. Clouse allegedly tried evading police who were responding to a vandalism call, WISH-TV reported.

With only a tractor as his getaway vehicle, Clouse managed to reach a whopping top speed of 18 miles per hour, police said.

Police said Clouse refused to pull over, despite driving over stop sticks which caused his tires to go flat. Clouse allegedly tried swerving into a deputy and attempted to ram multiple patrol cars, according to WANE.
