KALAMAZOO  (WKZO) --  A man who was wanted for 16 felonies in Kalamazoo and vowed never to be captured without a fight, has been taken into custody in Wisconsin. When he escaped in Kalamazoo in February, officers say Eugene Marr nearly ran over a Public Safety officer.

True to his word, he has now been arrested after injuring three officers during a fist fight and escape attempt in Racine, Wisconsin.  It finally took a Taser to subdue him enough to get him cuffed and in the back of a patrol car Wednesday.

The 21-year-old Marr is being held there until he can be extradited back to Michigan. 

Marr has a few drug, theft and domestic violence counts on his record, but the most serious charges against him involve his violent escapes.
