A group of minors attempted to elude Washington State Patrol (WSP) troopers in Marysville on Tuesday morning, traveling at speeds of more than 100 mph in their attempt to escape.

At approximately 3:30 a.m., troopers tried to pull over a vehicle driving 88 mph in a 60 mph zone, with the driver showing signs of DUI, according to KIRO 7.

Shortly after, the juveniles attempted to re-enter I-5 and head south. The minors lost control of the vehicle as they tried to enter the freeway.
