A 42-year-old man was behind bars Tuesday morning after allegedly leading authorities on a pursuit in a stolen vehicle that ended in a standoff on Interstate 15 in the City Heights area.
The incident began around 10 p.m. Monday when California Highway Patrol officers were sent to investigate a reported hit-and-run crash on southbound Interstate 5 near La Costa Avenue in Carlsbad.
He is being held in lieu of $50,000 bail pending his arraignment, scheduled for Friday afternoon.
