A man was arrested after fleeing from police during a traffic stop in Lakewood, police told TLS.
A State Trooper attempted to stop the driver in the area of River Avenue and Birch Street, whereupon the driver took off running.
After a brief chase, Troopers and Lakewood police officers located the suspect hiding in a bush and took him into custody.
Police say the suspect was found to be in possession of drugs.
Wow, nobody bashing the NJ State Police for being in Lakewood.
