Teenager arrested on Saturday in chase from West Allis to Milwaukee

WEST ALLIS, Wis. – A 16-year-old Milwaukee resident and a passenger were arrested early Saturday morning following a police chase that began in West Allis and ended near Jones Island in Milwaukee.

West Allis police attempted to stop the car for a traffic violation, but the 16-year-old fled shortly before 3 a.m.

The police tried to use stop bars to prevent the car from running away from the officers.

The tires were popped by the stop bars, but the driver continued to try to get away even after the car lost one of its front tires, according to WAPD.

Eventually, the 16-year-old crashed into parked cars near S. 1st St and W. Kassner Pl.

The driver and a passenger jumped out of the car and ran away, but were caught by the police and arrested in a nearby yard.

According to WAPD, there were no injuries in the accident.

The charge of fleeing from an officer against the 16-year-old will be forwarded to the Children's Court Center.
