IOWA CITY, IOWA (AP) -- Authorities have arrested a man wanted in a chase with police in the Iowa City area.
   
Jesse Davis, of Iowa City, was arrested on Sunday. He's accused of leading University Heights and Iowa City police on a chase in a stolen Jeep late Friday. Officials say police tried to pull him over for speeding, but he refused to stop.
   
Authorities say after leading police out of the city, Davis stopped the Jeep, put it into reverse and rammed a police car before fleeing on foot.
   
Davis faces six charges, including eluding and assault on a peace officer, and 19 traffic offenses.
   
Davis was in the Johnson County jail on Monday on bond of $21,000. Jail officials did not know if he had an attorney.
