Man Leads Police On Chase

{Charleston, West Virginia}...Police said Thursday evening that 25 year old Dominic Q. Lasure of Charleston would be charged with attempted murder upon his release from CAMC General Hospital. Officers responded to a Sunset Drive residence just before 2:00 P.M. Thursday after being notified of a domestic disturbance between a man and woman. Lasure jumped into his car when officers arrived and began to flee, leading officers on a chase down U.S. Route 119 onto Crestview Road in Mink Shoals. Officers secured several side streets in which Lasure could be stopped with spike strips. Lasure exited a side street and attempted to run over Charleston Patrolman J.F. Wilson, who was throwing spike strips. Charleston Police initiated another pursuit after Lasure got onto Interstate 77 toward Charleston. Kanawha County Sheriff's Deputies and West Virginia State Police troopers were called for assistance. Lasure crashed into another car at the Greenbrier Street exit and then was apprehended.
