HOUGHTON — A high-speed chase through Houghton and Hancock Tuesday night ended with the arrest of a South Carolina man.

Police began pursuing the man in Houghton around 8 p.m., when they received a notice to be on the lookout for a reckless driver.

The vehicle changed direction several times before entering Hancock, Houghton police said in a news release. Officers arrested the driver on Navy Street.
