A 21-year-old man took Pierce County deputies and Puyallup police on a dangerous, high-speed chase in a stolen car.
A deputy spotted the stolen car just after 10 p.m. Monday, near Puyallup. The driver took off, but was stopped a short time later after officers performed a PIT maneuver. The driver and three others fled the vehicle on foot, but all were eventually caught.
“Twelve-year-old female, a 14-year-old male, and a 16-year-old female, all of whom appeared to be intoxicated and under the influence of a substance,” Pierce County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Carly Cappetto said.

“He was also booked for bribery since he did attempt to offer the Puyallup officer $10,000 if he let him go,” Cappetto said.
The teens were taken to Reimann Hall Juvenile Justice Center in Tacoma and later released into the custody of their parents.
