Andover and Byram Police chase suspect into freezing swamp

Police Officers from Andover and Byram had to be treated for Hypothermia yesterday morning after chasing a suspect into ice cold swampy water. Several officers and the suspect found themselves neck deep in the frigid water before Joseph Flood of Port Jervis was taken into custody. Police in several other jurisdictions unsuccessfully tried to stop Flood in his Chevrolet Avalanche. He was spotted by Andover Police on Andover Mohawk Road around 8:30 yesterday morning. He took off in his truck but crashed it into a pole trying to avoid capture. Police then chased him on foot into the woods and swampy area near Roseville Road. Atlantic EMS and Lakeland Emergency Squad treated the officers and Flood at the scene. He is facing previous charges in New York State and new charges in Sussex County.
