A man suspected of burglary is now under arrest and facing multiple charges after he crashed his SUV amid a police chase in Oregon, as reported by officials.

Deputies from the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office responded to a burglary alert on the 17000 block of Southeast River Road around 4 p.m. on Tuesday.

A concerned resident contacted 911 after reviewing security footage that showed a man entering their garage and making off with several items, according to the deputies.

Upon arriving at the scene, deputies were provided with images of the suspect and informed that he was driving a white Ford Explorer.

The burglary suspect was apprehended following the crash of his SUV during the pursuit in Oregon, according to the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies later identified the suspect as Scotty Nicholas Oldfield. His vehicle was spotted by a deputy on Southeast Roethe Road before he sped off past the deputy.

Deputies began pursuing the vehicle and attempted to stop Oldfield. 

Oldfield eventually crashed into another occupied vehicle near Southeast Oatfield Road and Southeast Park Avenue and rolled the SUV he was driving before hitting an unoccupied parked vehicle.

The driver of the other occupied vehicle declined medical treatment at the scene. 

Oldfield was taken into custody and transported to a local hospital to be treated for serious injuries.

When deputies searched Oldfield’s vehicle, they located suspected stolen items.

Oldfield was charged with several crimes, including second-degree burglary, first-degree theft, attempting to elude a police officer, reckless driving, reckless endangerment, DUII, identity theft, driving while suspended or revoked, third-degree assault (DUII) and criminal mischief.

Investigators later learned that Oldfield had multiple outstanding warrants out of Oregon and Washington state for charges such as failure to appear, DUII, driving while suspended, false information, identity theft, assault, reckless endangerment, robbery, malicious mischief and criminal trespass.

Investigators believe Oldfield may have targeted additional victims. Anyone with information about Oldfield’s criminal activity is urged to contact the sheriff’s office.
