An auto-burglary suspect has been arrested after a high speed chase in Auburn.

The incident began on August 26, 2025, when Auburn police responded to a report of a suspect stealing property from a vehicle and then leaving in the area of the 1700 block of South College Street.

Shortly thereafter, the suspect and the suspect’s vehicle was located near the 2500 block of Bucee’s Boulevard. As officers attempted a traffic stop on the vehicle, a pursuit began.

The suspect vehicle made entrance onto Interstate 85 South before colliding with police vehicles near mile marker 41. The suspect attempted to flee on foot but was quickly apprehended.

The suspect, identified as 29-year-old Cadarius Dajuan Perry, age 29, from Montgomery, Alabama, has been charged with three counts of unlawful breaking and entering into a motor vehicle, two counts of theft of property second degree, fleeing and attempting to elude and theft of property third degree.

“During the investigation, evidence was recovered associated with two additional auto burglaries that occurred on Aug. 26 near the 100 block of East University Drive,” authorities added.

Perry was transported to the Lee County Jail and held on a $21,500 bond.
