Stephen Houk, the domestic violence suspect who led authorities on a nearly four-hour chase from Los Angeles County to the Bakersfield area, was taken in custody Thursday, according to Los Angeles County sheriff’s officials.
Houk, 46, was arrested around 4:30 p.m. in the Barstow area, according to officials.
Houk led authorities on a lengthy chase Tuesday that started from the mid-Wilshire area and ended in an orchard in rural Shafter, just outside of Bakersfield.
Two children, 11 months and 3 years old, who were in the RV during the chase were safely recovered in the orchard after Houk appeared to have abandoned the vehicle. A dog was also found safe.
