The two females caught on video using a stun gun to jack a cart full of stuff from a Marshalls are finally in jail — this after cops say they were led on a wild police pursuit.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … the girls — who were seen on video deploying a stun gun to rob a Studio City Marshalls last week — were arrested Sunday and taken into custody … but not before they led police on an insane chase through the South Bay.
We’re told the young ladies have allegedly hit other Marshalls stores in L.A. County — however, cops say it appears they only used the stun gun in that one instance Wednesday.
As for how they were eventually caught, welp … it sounds like something out of a movie. Hawthorne PD says a call came in for a robbery yesterday at a clothing retail store … and that witnesses saw the 3 women fleeing in a white Audi sedan.
HPD says a responding officer saw the vehicle on the road and attempted to initiate a stop — but they say the car failed to yield and then turned into a dead-end alley … only to turn around and drive straight forward toward the officer who was in hot pursuit.
Police say the Audi slammed into the cop car, and continued to drive away … leaving the cruiser seriously damaged. As the Audi continued to drive, law enforcement claims it hit 2 other vehicles on the road before officers were finally able to get them in cuffs.
Cops say the suspects are all minors — aged 13, 16 and 17 — and that they were treated at a local hospital before being hauled off to jail. BTW, we’re told three of these girls are the same ones involved in the Studio City incident, and that only 2 of them were seen in our video from last week.
For now, cops say the case remains under investigation.
