A man is in custody after leading police on a chase that ended in a crash in Southlake.

Officers spotted the truck again at Brumlow and Highway 26. The truck stopped and an officer spoke to the driver and tried to get him to do a field sobriety test. The driver fled on Brumlow and went on to North Carroll, East Southlake Boulevard and North White Chapel. 

Police said the truck hit a guardrail at the end of a dead end road.

The driver, identified as Christopher Thome, was taken into custody and charged with DWI. More charges are pending, according to police.
