Police Apprehend Three After They Jump From Suspected Stolen Vehicle Leading to Foot Pursuit in Newark

Newark New Jersey

A vehicle that refused to stop for police in the area of Central Ave. and South 12th Street had authorities follow that vehicle for a distance when the suspects came to a crashing halt in the area of South 12th Street and 16th Ave. at around 3:20 p.m.

The suspects bailed from the vehicle and attempted to make a run when swift police backup response and excellent team work  had several units converged on the scene, arresting three adult males. The suspect's vehicle reportedly struck several other vehicles around the city. 

The vehicle was possibly stolen overnight from an address in Hillside. 

There was at least one person injured during the pursuit.
