The officer attempted to stop the car near Dryden Road, but it fled. The officer chased the vehicle on Main Street from Dryden Road to Springboro Pike before ending the pursuit near West Stroop Road due to dangerous conditions, Parish said.
“At that point our officer estimated the stolen car was traveling in excess of 100 mph north on Springboro Pike toward West Dorothy Lane,” he said.
The pursuit reportedly lasted less than a minute.
About 10 minutes later, Moraine officers learned Dayton police found the Hyundai and that it crashed on Patterson Boulevard near River Park Drive.
The car hit a 2010 Chevrolet Colorado and a 2014 Toyota Venza, according to a Dayton police crash report. No injuries were reported.
The driver of the Hyundai was listed as a 14-year-old boy, and the two passengers were 13 and 15.
In cruiser camera footage, the officer also pursued a second vehicle. In later body camera footage from a Moraine officer, police discussing the pursuit said that the second vehicle was a Kia, and the boys said they ditched it when its wheel locked up.
Dayton police helped Moraine take the three teens into custody. The trio could face felony receiving stolen property charges, Parish said.
