A driver of a stolen Jeep was arrested after leading cops on chase with two kids in the backseat on I-94.
On, April 11, 2024, at approximately 9:02AM, Macomb County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO) Deputies were alerted to an alleged stolen vehicle via FLOCK camera. A MCSO Deputy attempted to stop the silver Jeep Grand Cherokee on E. Price Drive near Metropolitan Parkway, in Clinton Township. However, the suspect, a 29-year-old male from Chesterfield kept driving.
The suspect continued to disregard deputies’ attempts to stop him, entering westbound I-94 from Harper Avenue, just south of 15 Mile Road.
The suspect then preformed a U-turn in the westbound lanes, proceeding to recklessly drive against traffic, heading eastbound in the westbound lanes.
Ultimately, the suspect was stopped by a MCSO patrol vehicle on I-94 near Shook Road, in Harrison Township.
A three-year-old and an infant, were discovered in the backseat. The children were taken to a nearby hospital, medically cleared, and released to a family member.
