Suspect in wild pursuit pleads not guilty

The suspect accused of leading police on a high speed pursuit in the east valley appeared in court on Tuesday.

Joshua Monigold pleaded not guilty on several charges related to the chase that lasted hours last month.

Police were trying to arrest him for a hit and run case out of southern Arizona. During the pursuit, Monigold got into an altercation with a motorcyclist after he attempted to steal the man's bike. Monigold then returned to his truck and eventually crashed on Interstate 10.

Monigold will be back in court on May 27.
