A Brazil man is in the Vigo County Jail after he fled officers on a pursuit into Clay County early Tuesday morning.

The Vigo County Sheriff’s Office says , Joshua D. Corbin, 29, was seen with his truck backed up to the Seelymart Gas Station on East US 40.

When approached by an officer Corbin provided a fake name and last four digits of his social security number.  Police found out Corbin's true identity while talking to the truck's female passenger.

Now knowing Corbin had a warrant for resisting arrest the officer requested assistance.  As the arriving officer was trying to put his vehicle in front of Corbin's truck the suspect drove away from the scene.  The second officer was almost struck by Corbin's truck.

The pursuit included several residential yards, a deep ravine and then onto US 40 at speeds of 90 miles per hour.  At one point, Corbin missed a Clay County turn at an intersection and his truck got stuck in the yard at that spot.  Corbin fled on foot but was captured after a short chase.

Corbin was charged with criminal recklessness with a deadly weapon, resisting law enforcement and reckless driving.
