Authorities say they attempted to make a traffic stop in Nye County with a driver who turned out to be a wanted fugitive and he ended up leading them on a 49-mile chase.
The driver eventually crashed into a fence in the Las Vegas valley where he was taken into custody, according to police.
No serious injuries were reported but a passenger in the vehicle was transported to a local hospital with minor injuries.
The NCSO says more details will be released later in the week.
