KALAMAZOO (WWJ) -- Earlier this week there was a wild car chase on I-94 in southwest Michigan involving an allegedly stolen vehicle driven by someone not even old enough to have a license.
According to the Van Buren County Sheriff Dan Abbot, five teenagers ranging in age from 14 to 17 led police on a chase Monday from Paw Paw to Portage. The driver? A 14-year-old.
The chase, at times, reached speeds of more than 100 mph, officials said.
Before the chase, police said the teens allegedly took a purse from someone's grocery cart.
The teens ended up crashing into another vehicle on I-94 near Kalamazoo, causing that vehicle to roll over and catch fire. The teens then fled on foot.
The young suspects had to be tracked down by deputies and a K-9, said police.
