GREENFIELD, Wis. (CBS 58) -- CBS 58 got new video of a Greenfield police chase that ended in a crash. 

It happened Tuesday night, and dash cam video shows the moment after the man fleeing police hit another car and crashed on I-41 at the Watertown Plank Road exit. 

According to a police report, an officer first saw the suspect speeding near 51st and Layton. 

The officer wrote the suspect was also swerving and blew red lights. 

During the chase, the officer did a PIT maneuver, but it was unsuccessful. 

Eventually, it ended when the suspect caused that crash at the Watertown Plank Road Exit. 

Police then arrested him. 

CBS 58 is not naming the suspect, a 29-year-old with previous felony convictions, because he has not yet been charged in connection to this incident. 

Police say the man claimed someone else was in the car and he wasn't driving. 

The officer wrote he only saw one person in that car the entire time.
