NORTHBORO, Mass. — Three people were arrested Monday afternoon following a high-speed police chase along several Massachusetts interstates until the vehicle lost control and crashed.
At approximately 2 p.m., Massachusetts State Police located and began following a stolen Lexus out of Peabody that was seen driving at a high-speed rate west on Rt. 9 through Southborough and Westborough and onto Rt. 495 northbound.
Aerial video taken from an MSP Air Wing shows the pursuit of the suspect vehicle, a 2002 white Lexus IS, on Rt. 290 before the vehicle turned onto Rt. 117 in Bolton and reversed direction, re-entering Rt. 495 on the southbound side, police said.
A short time later, as the pursuit continued, the Lexus entered Rt. 290 West in Marlboro.
Troopers then deployed stop sticks between Soloman Pond Rd. in Marlboro and Green St. in Northboro, causing the suspect vehicle to crash into another car and stop in the median, according to police.
