House Burglary Turned Manhunt In Prior Lake

PRIOR LAKE (WCCO) -- What started as a house robbery became a full blown manhunt in Prior Lake.

According to authorities, it started when a woman called 911 to report a burglary in progress at her home. When police arrived, the burglar took off.

Cops chased him on foot into a swampy wooded area near 170th Street and Marshall Road.

A state patrol helicopter helped track down the man, who was hiding under a tree.

Scott County deputies arrested the man, but they're still looking for someone who took off in a car.
