Houston Police Department had quite the time tracking down this burglary suspect, and he certainly didn't make it easy for them!

According to KHOU:

According to police, they were called to a home on Melwood Street at about 1 p.m. The caller told officers that the home was being burgled.

Police say when they showed up, the suspects got spooked.

What started as a car chase turned into a foot chase off Hardy Road. Police chased one suspect into a field and when clipping him with a patrol SUV didn’t work, one of the officers on the helicopter jumped out and tackled him.

The second suspect was arrested a short time later in a nearby neighborhood. "

 

Well, that's one way to do it!
