One suspect was arrested and another is still on the run after leading police of a foot chase near the construction site of the white water rapids course near the Oklahoma River in downtown Oklahoma City, Monday afternoon.

It all started as a routine traffic stop by a motorcycle officer on Interstate 40, near interstate 235. The suspects were driving in a white pickup that was hauling a flatbed trailer when they ditched the car after the traffic stop.

One suspect attempted to elude the officers by jumping into the canal. That suspect is now in custody. 

A second suspect, described only as a white male dressed in all black clothing, remains at large. 

The identity of the suspect in custody has not been released at this time. Police later learned that the pickup the suspects were driving in was stolen.
