The three suspects were witnessed by a passerby as they reportedly burglarized a Jamba Juice and the neighboring Poke Dot, 175 N. Indian Hill Ave., just after midnight October 29. The driver fled the suspect vehicle as officers arrived. One of the three passengers took the wheel and led police on a pursuit, according to the Claremont Police Department. The suspect who fled on foot is still outstanding. The pursuit sped along the west I-10 freeway and north on the 605. The pursuit transitioned to the west 210 freeway and to the west 134.

The California Highway Patrol, Glendale Police officers and a helicopter assisted Claremont in tracking down the suspects.
