A man is in jail Tuesday after leading police on a chase through Oklahoma City overnight.

Oklahoma City police found Jacob Lee Pawpa, 19, in a stolen car just four miles from where a woman reported it stolen from her house.

But police said Pawpa didn't give up easily. Instead, he led them on a pursuit along I-44 and I-240 until he finally jumped out near a mobile home park at S.E. 66th Street and Shields Boulevard.

A K-9 officer tracked him near a fence at the mobile home park, where he was found hiding under a van.

Pawpa was arrested on complaints of vehicle theft and eluding police.
