Four people are in the Falls County Jail Saturday after leading multiple law enforcement agencies on a high-speed chase.

The Falls County Sheriff's office received reports of a reckless driver and they reached out to Lott Police.

Officers with the Lott Police Department saw the same car speeding and tried to pull it over.

Falls County deputies then attempted to block off the road ahead of that driver,  but the driver didn't stop and nearly hit one of the deputies.

The driver then led law enforcement from multiple agencies, including the Lott Police Department, the Temple Police Department, DPS Troopers and Falls County Deputies, on a chase reaching speeds of over 100 miles per hour.

Near the intersection of Highway 53 and Loop 363, three people got out of the suspect's car and were arrested.

Police say the driver drove about 250 yards away before they were also arrested.

All four people are in the Falls County Jail and each of them faces multiple charges. Their names have not been released.
