A federai fugitive was chased for a couple of hours in eastern Christian County and a perimeter was set up around Highways Z and 14.

Sheriff Joey Kyle tells KTTS News he's in the process of determining what the man was being sought for other than just being a federal fugitive -- he did not know what prior convictions the man had.

The chase started when members of a task force got a tip the man was in the area, and a short time later he was spotted driiving down the highway.

Officers at last word had lost sight of the car and the suspect.
