The Newport Beach police responded to to a call at about 3:40 p.m. about a man who needed medical attention at the 19700 block of Campus Drive, which is just outside the airport, in Newport Beach.

When officers arrived, the man, Carroll, got up and jumped over a fence. The police officers chased him on foot. He was found a few minutes later hiding in an unlocked private helicopter.
