WOODBURY, Minn. — A police pursuit Saturday ended with seven boys — between the ages of 12 and 15 — being taken into custody after officials say they were connected to a stolen vehicle and attempted to steal from a store in Woodbury.
Woodbury Police say they were called to a Cabela’s store off Hudson Road at around 1:35 p.m. on a report of a “disturbance and shoplifting incident.” Police say they later learned that the suspects were also connected to a stolen vehicle.
Authorities say the suspects fled the area in an alleged stolen vehicle, fleeing into Lake Elmo on County Road 13. Officers were able to stop the vehicle using a “PIT maneuver,” however, the suspects then fled on foot, according to officials. Law enforcement eventually took the seven boys into custody.
