Man throws active meth lab out of window

We've learned a chase started on Wednesday when a suspect became spooked by an officer.

Broken Arrow police say an officer discovered a man sitting in his car at the Country Lane housing addition.  The officer attempted to speak with Angel Murphy, but instead, the suspect sped off down the road.

A chase then ensued.

During the chase, Murphy ran a stop sign and knocked over a mailbox.  He was also seen throwing something out of his window.

Eventually, Murphy pulled into the Rhema Student housing complex, where he slammed into a vehicle.

Police say he got out of his car and tried to run on foot, but he didn't get very far.  A K-9 officer found him hiding behind an air conditioning unit.

It turned out, the car he was driving was stolen.

Officers then went to the location where he had thrown something out of his window.  Police say they found an active, fuming one-pot meth lab.
