EUCLID, Ohio (WJW) — Euclid police are continuing to investigate Sunday’s deadly pursuit that claimed the life of an innocent person.

Two suspects, a 17-year-old male and an 18-year-old female, were arrested Sunday.

Charges against the 17-year-old, who is believed to be the driver, may be filed soon in Cuyahoga County Juvenile Court. Police are looking for a possible third suspect.

The chase started when Euclid police tried stopping a vehicle that had been stolen from two female victims at gunpoint in Cleveland on Friday.

The suspects refused to stop and led police on a high speed chase. The chase ended when the suspects crashed into another vehicle, killing Michelle Wall.

Wall, a 44-year-old mother of three, was on her way to church when the crash occurred.

Cleveland councilman Mike Polensek said family and friends are devastated and want answers. 

“I want justice,” Polensek said. “I want justice for the victim. I want justice for her family and loved ones. My deepest sympathy for the victim.”

Euclid Police Chief Scott Meyer said he too is devastated by Wall’s death. He stressed suspects need to stop when police try to stop them.

He added that his department routinely reviews all pursuits and will review this incident to make sure all policies were followed properly.

“Our condolences go the family,” Meyer added. “I am devastated this happened. “
