AUBURN — A wild day for police officers in Worcester County.
At approximately 7:08 AM, officers of the Charlton Police Department had a car fail to stop when attempting to pull them over, resulting in a high-speed chase.
The suspect, driving a 2016 Black Toyota Camry, was heading North on Main Street towards the Oxford Police Station.
Oxford police began to prepare to deploy stop-stick devices, but the vehicle sped right by, traveling upwards of 80 miles per hour. Oxford police then joined in on the chase.
The suspect’s car traveled Northbound, where officers in the area of 732 Main Street successfully deployed stop-sticks, deflating the car’s tires. However, despite this, the car continued to travel on Route 20.
At this point, members of the Oxford, Charlton, and Auburn Police Department and members of the Massachusetts State Police were all in on the chase.
The suspect finally came to a stop and was successfully taken into custody.
Upon review of surveillance footage, Oxford police observed the suspect driving erratically onto a sidewalk and onto Main Street.
“TEAM WORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK,” The Oxford Police Department wrote in a Facebook post.
The driver will be summoned to Dudley District Court on charges of Negligent Operation of a Motor Vehicle, and he was issued a citation. Additional charges may be filed by Charlton, Auburn, and the Massachusetts State Police.
No injuries were reported.
