GT In The News: Car Chase Through Town, Be Careful Out There

COLTON

Teens apprehended following police chase

Two teenagers driving a stolen vehicle were taken into custody Friday at the end of a four-city police chase.

Officers responding to a report of a stolen vehicle at Rancho and Olive streets found the car traveling east on Mill Street. The pursuit entered San Bernardino, where local police joined the chase near Fifth and I streets.

The car jumped onto Interstate 215 south and returned to Colton, continuing into Grand Terrace. It then got on I-215 north at Washington and switched to Interstate 15, where the California Highway Patrol took over.

The chase continued north into Hesperia, where the youths exited, lost control of the vehicle and crashed into a utility pole. There were no injuries.
