An Edinburgh man was arrested early this morning after Columbus police noticed him behaving suspiciously in Lincoln Park.

According to police reports, an officer saw the man in the park at about 2:30 a.m. and when the officer approached, the man allegedly ran away. After a chase, the man was captured by police and then allegedly gave a fake name to officers, says Lt. Matt Harris, spokesman for the Columbus Police Department.

He was eventually identified as 27-year-old Jesse A. Murphy. Murphy had an outstanding warrant out of Johnson County. He is also now facing preliminary charges of resisting law enforcement and false informing.
