ASU then tracked the SUV and relayed its position to patrol officers, who tried to make a traffic stop. The driver refused to pull over and started driving erratically.

Patrol units backed off and ASU continued to track the stolen vehicle to Nesbitt Crescent where two people were seen getting out.

Officers moved in and arrested two women.
