HOWELL — A Brooklyn man who authorities said bought an iPad using fake credit card was arrested after leading Howell Township police on a chase. The incident started at 3:01 p. m. on Friday at the Best Buy store on Route 9 in Howell, said Howell police Chief Andrew Kudrick Jr. Kudrick said employees of the store reported a man later identified as Ernest Jones, 47, of Brooklyn, had just... He was seen getting into a 2006 Infiniti QX56 SUV with a Georgia license plate. When Howell police officers tried to stop the car on Route 9 south, the vehicle sped up and began driving "recklessly," the chief said. About 20 minutes later, Howell patrolman Nicholas Bondarew spotted the car traveling east on Interstate 195 in Howell, Kudrick said. When the SUV's driver noticed the police car, Jones exited the highway back onto Route 9 south where he eventually turned into a residential area, Kudrick said. The chief said that while the officers were following the SUV, Jones tried to run down a police officer, prompting authorities to pick up the chase again. The chase continued onto Route 195 west with police cars, including New Jersey State Police, pursuing him, Kudrick said. Source: www.nj.com
