CHICAGO (CBS) -- A police chase on I-65 in Indiana ends with a surprise twist.

State Troopers say the driver refused to pull over for a traffic stop and headed northbound on I-65 from the Lowell exit.

Eventually, the driver flipped his car while trying to avoid stop sticks and he was transported to a nearby hospital.

After he reported pain in his buttocks -- tests showed a serious pre-existing condition that was potentially life-threatening.

He was then flown to Chicago for further treatment. Charges against that driver are still pending.
