A man wanted on various charges was pulled from a Sumner County ravine after apparently becoming trapped during a foot chase. 

Michael Mungle had been wanted for allegedly evading arrest, theft and reckless endangerment, in addition to drug charges involving meth. 

Sumner County EMA officials said a foot chase ensued around 2 a.m. Tuesday. At some point, crews were called to an area in Bethpage to rescue him from the ravine. 

He was taken by ambulance to an area hospital, where he's expected to OK. 

The Westmoreland Fire Department posted several photos on Facebook, saying crews used a rope to pull Mungle out of the ravine.
