“[Earlier this week] the Fayette County Sheriff’s Patrol Unit received a notification to be on the lookout for a stolen vehicle that could have been involved in a car-jacking in DeKalb County, according to the Fayette County Sheriff’s Office.
“As soon as our deputies located the vehicle, they attempted to initiate a traffic stop but the driver began to flee. He led the deputies on a short pursuit through a residential neighborhood and crashed into another vehicle at the intersection of Ramah Road and Redwine Road.
“The juvenile suspect exited the stolen vehicle armed with a gun, but quickly surrendered as Deputies approached. He was taken into custody, but this incident is still being investigated by the DeKalb County Police Department.”
