At around 9:30 a.m. Carson City dispatch was alerted to a vehicle pursuit through Washoe Valley being done by Nevada Highway Patrol and Reno Police Department.
The Silver Toyota Corolla was slowed during the pursuit due to spiked strips, and dodged at least two other attempts. The vehicle came to a stop after it was apparently pushed into a retaining wall. A canine was deployed, which stopped at least one of the suspects. A male and female were taken into custody.
