Belleville teen arrested in Dearborn during third police chase

Nathan Patrick-Thomas Ling, 17, of Belleville was arrested Nov. 7 during his third attempt to elude Dearborn Police.
Van Buren Township Police put out the alert of a stolen vehicle and when a Dearborn police officer tried to stop him in the stolen vehicle, he fled at speeds up to 100 mph and the officer terminated the pursuit.
Later in the evening, Ling was spotted with the same stolen car by another Dearborn police officer and fled again, this time crashing into a bar at Wyoming and Michigan avenues. He fled on foot to a nearby building where he scaled a wall and taunted police and fire personnel by swearing loudly at them. He was taken into custody.
Warrants were issued by the Wayne County Prosecutor’s office on two counts of fleeing police officers, possession of a stolen vehicle, unlawful driving away of a motor vehicle and three counts of assaulting, resisting, obstructing a police officer.
Ling, who was in custody, was scheduled to be before 19th District Court Judge Eugene Hunt, Jr., in Dearborn last Monday for his probable cause conference.
