A foot chase led to the arrest of a suspected burglar just north of Pinson on Thursday.

A 26-year-old North Jefferson County man has been arrested and charged with burglary after breaking into a home Thursday evening.

Just before 6:00 pm on Thursday June 14, deputies responded to a report of a burglary in progress at a home in the 8600 block of Old Bradford Road north of Pinson.

Deputies arrived quickly and saw 26-year-old Jacob Ian Peters running away from the home. He was captured after a brief foot chase. He was found to have outstanding warrants for probation violations and burglary.

Peters was arrested and taken to the Jefferson County Jail where he was held with no bond on the outstanding warrants.

On Friday afternoon deputies obtained additional arrest warrants charging him with third-degree burglary, resisting arrest, attempting to elude, theft of property, criminal mischief, and obstructing justice with false ID.
