Police arrest suspect in high-speed Grand Forks to Fargo chase

(Fargo, ND) -- A suspect is in custody following an hour-long pursuit that began in Grand Forks and ended in Fargo Saturday morning.

The pursuit continued southward past Thompson, with speeds reaching up to 120 miles-an-hour as Hassan reportedly dodged spike strips on the interstate. He eventually ran over a spike strip near the milepost 66 exit ramp in Fargo, disabling the vehicle.

Hassan was arrested on suspicion of multiple crimes.
