  • News

Four people were arrested after two stolen vehicles crashed Wednesday in Pleasantville .

Egg Harbor Township police first spotted the vehicles that were reported stolen on California Avenue, township police Chief Fred Spano told BreakingAC.

Within 30 seconds, the vehicles were out of view, and then there was a crash on California Avenue in Pleasantville.

A nearby doorbell camera captured the crash as several parked cars were also struck. One of the stolen vehicles ended up on its roof.

Details were not immediately available as the investigation continued with Egg Harbor Township police working with Pleasantville.

The vehicles were stolen from Pleasantville, Spano said.

At least two of those arrested were juveniles.

Three were apprehended at the scene, with one fleeing, possibly in another stolen vehicle, according to the preliminary investigation.

The fourth suspect was later captured in Atlantic City.

No names or ages have been released at this time.

"This is a perfect example of neighboring towns working together to catch these criminals plaguing our communities," Spano said.
