A man was arrested on suspicion of trying to rob a cheque-cashing store following a dramatic car chase in the U.S. state of Arizona.

When police arrived on the scene, the suspect fled, which prompted the high speed chase.

Officers were eventually able to corner the man at a gas station, dragged him out of the vehicle and subdued him.

The suspect was apparently wounded during the pursuit and was later placed into an ambulance after he was arrested.

The extent of his injuries remains unclear.
