A fight at a bar on Lincolnway West in Mishawaka leads to a fatal police chase in Osceola.
Officers were called to the Phoenix Bar just before 1 a.m. Saturday after getting a report that a woman attacked someone in the bar. Police say that woman got on a motorcycle a man was driving and the two sped off.
About 20 minutes after the fight, officers catch up to the motorcycle, who speeds off and leads officers on a high-speed chase to Osceola, where the bike crashed near Jefferson and Bittersweet.
The drive, 46-year-old John Williams, died at the scene. His 41-year-old female passenger was taken to the hospital for non-life threatening injuries.
The area was closed to traffic for much of the early morning hours.
