Memphis ,TN : 2 babies found in crashed car with police chase suspect on Monday ,june 29th 201

A 20-minute police chase through Memphis ended with a suspected killer in jail and two babies in the custody of family members.

It all started Tuesday morning when Memphis police officers received a tip about the location of Elton Turner, 23.

Turner was wanted on first-degree murder and aggravated burglary charges stemming from a shooting that happened in January on Ely Street.

Officers located Turner's car at the intersection of Watson Street and East Mallory Drive. When officers tried to pull the driver over, he took off.

A total of five people were in the car.

Twenty minutes later, Turner's car crashed near the intersection of West Fay Avenue and Swift Street. From there, three people ran out of the car, still trying to get away from police.

Officers quickly corralled Turner, as well as Alex Smith, 23, and Kymberlei Jones, 18. Smith, who originally gave police the false name Quadaron Williford, had outstanding warrants for aggravated robbery. Jones had an outstanding warrant for assault.

The three suspects also abandoned two babies, 5-months and 1-year-old respectively, inside the car. Police reported the incident to the Department of Children's Services.
