Dashcam video was released from the police chase in Rolla last week.

According to police, Cody Willcoxson led authorities on a chase from Fort Leonard Wood to Rolla, where he crashed his car.

Missouri S&T went on lockdown after a man was seen walking through McNutt Hall with an AK-47. Police said it was Willcoxson. He then was the subject of a massive manhunt around the Rolla area.

He was arrested early Thursday afternoon after a short vehicle pursuit. Willcoxson faces several charges of assault on a police officer in addition to other charges.

Authorities said he got lost and ended up at Fort Leonard Wood, and that neither it or Rolla was a target for Willcoxson.
