Police Chase D.C. Car From Virginia to Maryland

Suspect drove Mercedes with D.C. tags

An unusual police chase that began with a robbery in Virginia ended with an arrest in Prince George’s County, Md.

Officers pursued the Mercedes-driving suspect after a woman in Fairfax County called police about an unwelcome acquaintance in her home. She saw the man she knows as "Boo" leaving her house and discovered $200 and credit cards missing from her purse.

The man led police into Maryland on a 20-minute, 10-mile chase, running into three Fairfax County police cruisers and three barriers on an access road before crashing to a stop.

Charges are pending.

The Mercedes bore D.C. tags 485 with an image of a rose. Such low tag numbers with a rose are assigned by the mayor and council members.
