A Fulton County man was arrested after leading officers on a Sunday night pursuit.

About 8:30 p.m., Chief Deputy Matthew Utter of the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office, attempted to stop a Chevrolet Impala in the area of the 700 W and Olson Road in Fulton County. The driver fled at a high rate of speed.

During the pursuit, the vehicle left the roadway and drove through two fields near the intersection of Olson Road and CR 200 W. The vehicle came to a stop in a field and the driver, Tristan Hensley, 18, of Rochester, was taken into custody without further incident.

Hensley was transported to the Fulton County Jail and booked on the charges of resisting law enforcement with a vehicle, reckless driving, and operating a vehicle without ever receiving a license.
