Police chase in Saginaw ends in arrests

Police in Saginaw have arrested two juveniles after a car chase and crash near the WNEM TV 5 studios on Sunday.

Police say officers were conducting a traffic stop on a suspected stolen vehicle when the occupants fled the area, leading police on a chase but ultimately crashing their vehicle on Franklin Street. The vehicle hit another vehicle heading west on Genesee Avenue, which then struck a lamp post.

The occupants of the second vehicle were taken to a local hospital. The suspects both fled their vehicle on foot after the crash but were caught just outside the TV news studio. One of the suspects allegedly threw a handgun out the window of the vehicle during the chase, which was later found by a Saginaw canine officer.

Both suspects are being held in the Saginaw County Juvenile Detention Center.
