NASHVILLE, TN -- Metro Police arrested four juveniles early Tuesday morning following a two-county high-speed chase that ended in a crash.
The chase began in Mt. Juliet when officers tried to pull over a car that had been reported stolen at gunpoint Nov. 25. The car sped west into Davidson County and spike strips were deployed at I-40 and Briley Parkway.
Eventually the car crashed into a wall near Gallatin Road. Metro Police said there were four juveniles in the car when it wrecked and the quartet tried to flee on foot, but all were arrested. None have been identified.
