St. George, Utah • Authorities say a Colorado man was arrested after leading sheriff's deputies and state troopers on a freeway chase reaching speeds of 115 mph with a woman and three children in his car.

Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Ryan Bauer tells The Spectrum that 33-year-old Jerry White was booked Thursday into Iron County jail on charges including reckless driving, driving with a revoked license and fleeing from officers.
