A Bristol man accused of leading police on a chase from Michigan to Indiana that ended in a crash with his passenger receiving serious injuries has been charged.

It was back in November when Gary Leiting Jr., 26, allegedly led police on a chase from Cass County into Elkhart County in a pick-up truck that was believed to have been stolen.

The pursuit ended with a crash near Ash Road and County Road 2.

The female passenger in the truck has since undergone several medical procedures and has multiple spinal fractures and may be permanently paralyzed.

Leiting now faces resisting charges and weapons-related counts.
