A man accused of leading local police on a chase faced new charges on Friday.

A grand jury indicted Elmer Hampton on charges of robbery by force, failure to comply and felonious assault on a police officer. Hampton was arrested after a chase through Dayton earlier this month.

Authorities said part of the chase went the wrong way on Interstate 75 and ended on Valley Street when officers blew out Hampton's tires.

He is accused of robbing two United Dairy Farmer stores before the pursuit.
