Pursuit ends in arrest of Beloit man
JANESVILLE — A Beloit man was arrested on multiple charges Wednesday morning after leading Rock County sheriff's deputies on a high-speed chase, according to a sheriff's office news release.
Deputies responded to a vandalism call at 3:01 a.m. in the 1300 block of West Brandherm Road in the town of Newark.
Although the perpetrator left before deputies arrived, another deputy located a vehicle deputies suspected was involved. When the deputy began to follow the vehicle, it sped away, leading to a pursuit at speeds up to 80 mph. The pursuit was terminated after deputies obtained the vehicle's license plate number.

He was released with a court date.
