On Thursday, officers saw the Avenger traveling on Tennessee Street and Humbolt Street. A police pursuit ensued when the driver refused to pull over when the officer initiated a traffic stop.

The suspects ran out of the sedan across the highway to a Golden Gate Fields property, according to police. Multiple agencies collaborated to set a perimeter to locate the suspects, including the California Highway Patrol and the Pinole Police Department.
