FULL CHASE: Suspect drives down sidewalk, jumps out of car during wild pursuit
Only Chopper 6 was overhead as the man tried to elude officers by driving down the sidewalk. At one point, the man jumped right out of the moving vehicle before it crashed at the intersection of 5th Street and West Glenwood Avenue in Kensington.
The suspect then made a run for it but not before officers were able to move in.
Police say prior the pursuit, a 17-year-old male was shot multiple times on a Route 60 SEPTA bus. The teen is hospitalized in critical condition.
Authorities believe two suspects connected to the shooting led officers on a chase in the Hyundai. Police say one suspect bailed out of the vehicle at 4th Street and Allegheny Avenue -- same area where police say they found a gun and at least four shell casings.
The second suspect arrested in Kensington has not been identified.
Anyone with information is asked to call police at 215-686-TIPS.
