Amherst Police responded to the area of Noel Drive on Sunday at 12:39 a.m. for reports of an attempted larceny in progress. Officers say they quickly determined that the suspects had stolen a car, which led to a police chase.
The police pursuit eventually came to a safe conclusion in the area of North Forest Road and Catherine Street after officers deployed a tire deflation device.
