ARVADA, Colo. — Police in Arvada are looking for one of three teen auto-theft suspects who police said led officers on a brief pursuit after crashing into a police car Monday morning.

Arvada police public information officer David Snelling said officers received a report of an auto theft at W. 60th Avenue and Yarrow Street.

When officers arrived, they encountered three teen suspects in the stolen vehicle.

The suspects reportedly swerved and hit a police car, prompting Arvada police to begin a pursuit.

The pursuit was ultimately called off shortly afterward.

After the pursuit had been called off, Snelling said the suspects continued driving and crashed at W. 67th Avenue.
