Euclid police chase ends in critical-injury crash in Cleveland

EUCLID (WJW) – A police chase that started Sunday afternoon near Miller Avenue in Euclid ended with a serious-injury crash in Cleveland.

Euclid Police Chief Scott Meyer says his officers were attempting to stop the suspects for a possible connection to a robbery, and the suspects refused to stop. He said the suspects ended up crashing into another vehicle on the Shoreway at East 156th Street. A female victim in the other vehicle was ejected and was critically injured, the chief said. Her injuries are described as life-threatening.

“This is extremely tragic,” Meyer said.

Two suspects, believed to be 17 and 18 years old, are now in custody. There is a possibility that there could be at least one additional suspect.

The chief added the investigation is just starting so additional information will be released as soon as possible.
