Columbus police arrested a wanted man last week after a bicycle and foot chase.

The incident started Thursday afternoon when a member of the Columbus Police Intelligence Led Policing Unit noticed 36-year-old Kolt A. Kreinhagen riding a bicycle in the area of McKinley and Gladstone avenues. The officer recognized that Kreinhagen was wanted on an outstanding Bartholomew County warrant but when he attempted to stop the cyclist, Kreinhagen allegedly took off.

After damaging a fence in the 200 block of Cleveland Street, officers used a Taser to subdue Kreinhagen and he was was arrested on preliminary charges of resisting law enforcement and criminal mischief in addition to the outstanding warrant.
