15-year-old accused in 100 mph stolen car chase in Reidsville
ROCKINGHAM COUNTY, N.C. (WGHP) — A 15-year-old is in custody after a chase involving a stolen car on Monday morning, according to the Rockingham County Sheriff's Office.
In the early morning hours of Monday, Rockingham County deputies got into a chase with a stolen Kia Sedona out of Caswell County.
Investigators say the chase began on NC 87 near the Caswell County line and went into Reidsville at speeds of over 100 mph.
Deputies took the teen into custody with the assistance of the Reidsville Police Department after he lost control of the car and crashed into a telephone pole on Price Street in Reidsville.
The teen was not hurt as a result of the crash and neither were any officers during the chase.
A juvenile petition for the teen suspect was obtained and he is in the custody of juvenile justice, where a secure custody hearing will take place later this week for crimes committed in Rockingham County.
The teen will also be facing charges from Caswell County as well as probation violations in Guilford County.
