Roseburg Police jailed a man after a chase led to the suspect jumping into a creek Wednesday night.

The RPD report said at about 11:10 p.m. officers attempted to contact 31-year old Matthew Bay in the 100 block of Northwest Garden Valley Boulevard, knowing he had a warrant for his arrest. Bay allegedly fled the area on a bicycle, going south along the railroad tracks, before turning into Gaddis Park in the 800 block of Northwest Highland Street.

Officers set up a perimeter and a deputy responded with K9 Eros. Eros tracked Bay to the creek, where he was found hiding. He was taken into custody without further incident. Bay was charged with attempting to elude a police officer in a vehicle, and for multiple warrants. He was detained without bail.
