A 15-year-old male is in custody following a police pursuit involving a stolen vehicle early Tuesday morning in north Fishers.

According to the Fishers Police Department, officers were alerted just before 6:30 a.m. by License Plate Reader technology to a potentially stolen vehicle in the area of 131st Street and Cumberland Road. When officers attempted to stop the vehicle, the driver fled, prompting a short pursuit.

The chase ended when the suspect crashed the vehicle into a light pole, rendering it inoperable. The driver, who was the sole occupant of the car, then fled on foot.

FPD’s K9 unit tracked the suspect to a nearby residence, where he was taken into custody without further incident. Authorities confirmed the suspect is a 15-year-old male juvenile.

He is facing multiple charges, including:

• Resisting Law Enforcement (Level 6 Felony)

• Resisting Law Enforcement (Class A Misdemeanor)

• Operator Never Licensed (Class C Misdemeanor)

• Leaving the Scene of a Property Damage Accident (Class B Misdemeanor)

• Theft – Unauthorized Control Over a Motor Vehicle

Police have not released the juvenile’s name due to his age. The investigation is ongoing.
