3 men and a minor from Jacksonville captured after high-speed chase in North Carolina

Three men and a minor from Jacksonville, whom were wanted in connection to a high-speed chase in Chatham County, North Carolina, have been arrested.

The search for the suspects started on Saturday morning after North Carolina state troopers attempted to pull them over for speeding 94 mph in a 65 mph zone in Chatham County, CBS17 reported.

Troopers said the driver did not stop, leading to a chase. When the vehicle spun out, officials said the four suspects inside the vehicle ran into nearby woods, CBS17 reported.

Officials were able to find three of the suspects on Saturday, and the fourth one on Sunday.

One of the suspects, Marcus Brown, 19, was found after officials said he stole a news car from a photographer and took off driving.

A state highway patrol trooper saw what happened and chased after the man. That suspect crashed into a state trooper’s car and was taken into custody.

Adrian Lowery, 24, and a minor were also taken into custody.

The final suspect, Caleb Sheffield, 19, was taken into custody on Sunday and was charged with possession of a stolen firearm.

The minor found with these men could also be facing charges.

All four are currently being held in the Chatham County Detention Facility.
