READING, PA : 2 men arrested after high-speed chase, crash in Reading on Thursday, 11th July 2019
Two men are behind bars in connection with a high-speed chase that ended with a crash in northwest Reading.
The suspects were identified in court documents released Thursday as the driver, Jesse Rivera, and his passenger, Chad Scott.
The suspects' arrests followed a pursuit that began around 3:30 p.m. Wednesday, when Rivera, driving an SUV, fled from officers in the 1400 block of Carbon Street.
From there, Rivera led pursuing police officers through several jurisdictions at a high rate of speed before returning to the city, where he crashed his SUV into a Pennsylvania State Police trooper's vehicle in the 1300 block of Butler Street, according to court documents.
Both men were apprehended at the scene.
