CARLSBAD ---- A vehicle being chased by Border Patrol agents crashed and overturned Monday morning in Carlsbad, Border Patrol spokesman Mike Endicott said.

Agents attempted to stop the driver of Chevrolet Geo travelling north on Interstate 5 shortly before 6 a.m. The driver did not stop and exited the I-5 at Palomar Airport Road and drove east. At a nearby intersection, the driver, a 29 year-old Mexican man, attempted to make a u-turn and crashed into a Toyota Tundra.

No one was injured in the incident, Endicott said. The man who is believed to be in the country illegally was arrested, Endicott said.
