Bridgeville- The Delaware State Police arrest a Georgetown man after he led Troopers on a pursuit and resisted arrest.

The incident occurred on Saturday, March 24, 2018 at approximately 9:12 p.m. when a Trooper witnessed a gold, 2004 Nissan Maxima traveling eastbound on Seashore Highway (Rt. 404) near Cannon Road with a headlight out. As the Trooper activated their emergency equipment in an attempt to stop the vehicle, the operator accelerated and a pursuit ensued. Stopped sticks were subsequently deployed bringing the vehicle to a stop on Redden Road, east of Sussex Highway.

The operator and sole occupant, identified as 40-year-old Christopher J. Albury of Georgetown exited the vehicle and a foot pursuit ensued. After a brief struggle, Albury was taken into custody.
