ENFIELD, Conn. (WTNH) — Enfield police say they enlisted the help of a K9, drone units, and state police troopers to apprehend two juveniles accused of leading officers on a chase Wednesday.

At least one of three suspects was not located as of Thursday morning.

The incident started when police received a complaint around 3 a.m. Wednesday reporting suspects trying to get into parked vehicles in the Tolland Drive area.

When officers arrived to check the area, a grey Dodge Durango and red Chevrolet SUV fled, sparking a pursuit with officers. However, officers disengaged per state policy.

The Durango was determined to be stolen from David Street in Enfield.
