Accident on Tuesday, Stolen Car
About 5:15 a.m. on Tuesday,
officers were dispatched to the area of Ocean Avenue where a caller stated they
were behind a stolen motor vehicle that was on the news the previous
night.
Officers then observed the vehicle, heading westbound on the Parkway in front
of the police station and attempted to stop the vehicle. The vehicle fled onto
Rt. 1A southbound and failed to stop. The vehicle then struck a pick-up
truck in traffic and caused it to roll over. The operator of the truck was
trapped in the vehicle, and Revere Fire was able to extract him. He was
transported to the hospital, and his injuries appear non-life threatening.
The stolen motor vehicle sustained heavy damage in the crash and came to a
stop southbound on Rt. 1A. There were four occupants in the vehicle, and
three occupants were taken into custody. The fourth, who fled on foot was taken
into custody minutes later northbound on Rt. 1A. All four are juveniles.
There were two replica firearms located in regard to this vehicle. The
vehicle was involved in a carjacking in Burlington Monday night.
