Norwich, Conn./WTIC Radio - Two suspects are in custody after police from several towns tracked the pair after they tripped an alarm during an attempted burglary at the Berkshire Bank in Norwich.

Police from several jurisdictions followed 24-year-old Mark Francis Chee-You and 30-year-old Euries Tejada to Wethersfield and into Rocky Hill on a ten mile jaunt for several hours.

The pair ditched their getaway vehicle on Interstate 91 in the wrong direction on the exit 26 northbound off-ramp.

They were later taken into custody without incident.

Police used K9s, fixed wing aircraft, and drones during the course of the pursuit.

Authorities say both men have extensive criminal histories, police said.
