HOUSTON -- A man was arrested Monday after a wild police chase in North Texas.

Police said it started in Fort Worth where an officer tried to make a traffic stop, but the driver took off instead.

During the chase the suspect drove through grass and rear-ended another vehicle, but kept on driving all the way through the nearby town of Granbury, police said.

He eventually jumped out of his moving vehicle, and then jumped over a nearby guard rail where he took off running before finally falling down.
 
That’s when officers finally arrested the man.
   
Investigators say the man ran because he was wanted for violating parole on a burglary charge.

He now faces more charges, including evading arrest.
