BALTIMORE — Officers from the Southeast District spotted a vehicle traveling at high speeds without its lights on in the vicinity of East Preston Street at North Milton Street. The incident led to a high-speed pursuit. When the vehicle was seen in the 800 block of North Milton Street, officers attempted to initiate a stop, but the vehicle continued to elude capture.
The chase escalated as officers called for assistance from Foxtrot, which located the vehicle at a dead-end on the 900 block of North Chapel Street. There, the vehicle collided with a curb and became inoperable.
The combined efforts of SWAT, DAT, GVU, and E&T officers thwarted attempts by the driver and passenger to escape on foot.
A 21-year-old male and a 35-year-old male were arrested at the scene. It was discovered that both individuals were barred from possessing firearms. They were taken to the Central Booking Intake Facility and faced multiple charges, including handgun violations.
