RENO COUNTY—Law enforcement authorities are looking for a parole absconder with a long history of crime.

Reno County sheriff's deputies attempted tried to contact 32-year-old Justin Quaid Walker to serve an arrest warrant Saturday, according to a social media report. 

Walker made it to a vehicle and fled from the area, leading officers on a chase throughout the city. A woman was let out of the vehicle in the area of 10th and Severance and the pursuit was called off a short time later due to the amount of traffic in the city at the time. Walker wrecked the vehicle near 21st and Main and fled on foot.  

The Sheriff's Office also wants to identify the woman who was in the vehicle so they can talk to her.
