MORRISTOWN -- Ogdensburg City Police helped bring an end to a multi-county police chase by deploying spike strips on State Highway 37 Wednesday afternoon.

Ogdensburg Police Chief Mark Kearns said a city police officer suffered minor injuries and was treated and released at Claxton-Hepburn Medical Center after Kody Larock, 28, of Potsdam, hit the patrol vehicle.

Kearns said city police were asked to assist in the chase which began in Onondaga County and included state police from Troop D and Troop B as well as St. Lawrence County Sheriff's Department.

Kearns said from an administrative standpoint he was pleased with how the multiple agencies were able to work together to bring the dangerous situation to an end.

"It was great to see the state police and sheriff's office and our department flawlessly work together," he said.

Kearns said Larock will be charged on outstanding warrants in addition to multiple charges that are expected to come from the state police. Among those charges will be a charge for striking the officer's vehicle.

Larock remains in custody with state police at this time.
