Aaron Almanzar first began the chase when troopers attempted a traffic stop for speeding—but instead of stopping he turned his headlights off and fled on I-81 north around 9 p.m., police say. 

The pursuit reached speeds of over 120 miles per hour as it went into Lebanon County.

Almazar apparently went home, as police later arrested him there, according to the release. 

Police found marijuana during a search of his vehicle the following, which they explain in the release. 

He was briefly held in Dauphin County Prison on multiple charges including a felony charge of fleeing and eluding a police officer but was later released on $25,000 in bail, court records show. 

His preliminary hearing has been scheduled for Thursday, July 21, according to his court docket.
