Neighbors who lived near where the chase ended said it was way too close for comfort, as police soon had to chase the people on foot through their neighborhood.

FOX6 News was on the scene when a Hyundai tried to outdrive Glendale police. Glendale police said It turns out all the people involved were underage.

"It was too close for comfort. Definitely," said Mcadory. "Once you come up, yes, it was too close for comfort." 

Mcadory said she saw multiple people running away on foot across her front lawn. She was startled by the noise and what they saw outside.

"Yes, they were escaping," Mcadory said. "I don't know how many got away." 

Mcadory was glad she remembered to lock her door.

"They're hoping out and running. I'm just like ok," said Mcadory. "I'm glad that I did do this, but suppose I didn't lock my door."

Teen arrested from the car.
