The teens jumped into a getaway car and led officers on a pursuit. They abandoned the vehicle and ran into the rugged, swampy area in hopes that they would not be caught.

State police tracked them with a K-9 and arrested the two 18-year-old men and a 17-year-old girl. The suspects face charges including receiving stolen property, breaking and entering into a motor vehicle, unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, failure to stop and negligent operation.
