Dashcam video shows Kent County teens arrested after police chase in a stolen vehicle
By: Livingston County, MI - Three teenagers from Kent County were arrested after leading police on a pursuit in a stolen vehicle in Livingston County.
The incident occurred around 3 a.m. on Friday, when Livingston County police officers attempted to stop a car believed to be stolen.
After the driver failed to pull over, a pursuit started and went through Howell, eventually ending in Pinckney after deputies performed a PIT maneuver.
The PIT maneuver involved the deputy using his cruiser to apply pressure to the rear quarter panel of the vehicle, causing a spin-out of the vehicle, according to the Department of Homeland Security's Federal Law Enforcement Training Center. It can allow officers to end a pursuit.
Dash camera video from one of the deputy's cruisers captured the vehicle going into the oncoming lane.
Officers on scene discovered the car was reported stolen from the Grand Rapids area. The three suspects in the car were all under the age of 16 and were later turned over to their parents.
