CHELTENHAM, Pa. - A carjacking suspect and another person were arrested Thursday in Montgomery County after police say they tried to flee when officers were closing in on their car.
The Cheltenham Police Department said a vehicle believed to have been carjacked out of Philadelphia was spotted in the parking lot of Cheltenham High School around 4 p.m.
One of the people inside the vehicle was believed to be armed with a handgun, according to information given to the department by the Philadelphia Carjacking Task Force.
When marked patrol cars approached the vehicle, police say the driver sped off and lead officers on a brief pursuit that ended when the driver slammed into another car.
