Stolen vehicle pursuit, Milwaukee teen charged: video
MILWAUKEE - Officials released dashboard camera video of a high-speed police pursuit that ended near Silver Spring Road in Glendale.
Prosecutors say 18-year-old Areon Binford was the driver, and he refused to stop when he saw the blue and red lights. Multiple agencies, including Brown Deer, Bayside and Glendale police, all worked together to stop the pursuit.
Around 3:30 a.m. on July 19, Bayside police spotted a suspect vehicle, reported stolen the previous day, and pursued it down Brown Deer Road.

Officers in pursuit estimated there being three or four people inside the vehicle at the time. When it finally came to a stop on Silver Spring, Binford and others ran off. The driver fled south on I-43 and two people fled west over the barrier wall.
