Suspects wanted after stolen vehicle pursuits and carjacking

Police are looking for suspects after a wild 30-minute stretch which involved a pair of aborted pursuits of stolen vehicles and a carjacking.

It happened July 6 at around 7:15 p.m., when officers spotted a stolen vehicle being driven westbound on Goulet Street.

Police followed, but backed off due to the suspect’s manner of driving. The vehicle slammed into another one on the Queen Elizabeth Bridge and kept going.

Eventually, the vehicle made its way to the 600-block of Archibald where two suspects got out of the car and jumped into another vehicle that had been previously stolen.

Police spotted this one and began chasing it again, but the vehicle eventually started driving the wrong way down Marion Street leading to the pursuit being aborted once again.

At around 7:45 p.m., police were informed a carjacking took place in a church parking lot in the 300 block of Munroe Avenue after a woman in her 70s was pulled from a rental vehicle by the same suspects. She was treated for minor injuries.
