COVINGTON, Ky. (WKRC) - Two men are expected to face felony charges after leading police on a multi-county chase, across state lines in a stolen tow truck.

 

The pursuit ended when the suspects crashed the tow truck on 5th Street in Covington around 4:30 a.m. Saturday after exiting 71/75 SB.

 

Covington Police say the tow truck was stolen in Cincinnati. The driver was able to use the GPS system inside the truck to track it to Sharonville.

 

Sharonville Police spotted the truck and that’s when the pursuit began. 

 

Ohio State Highway Patrol got involved around High Street and Erie Boulevard in Hamilton. OSHP dispatchers say the suspects led troopers around Butler County before getting on 75 SB. An Ohio agency used stop sticks.

 

At some point during the pursuit, police say the suspects rammed into an OSHP cruiser. No troopers were injured and the cruiser received minor damage, according to dispatchers.

 

Covington Police say the two men have multiple warrants. They are expected to also face charges from Sharonville Police, Ohio State Highway Patrol and from Covington Police. There’s no word on possible charges in Cincinnati.
