Speedway Police arrested three occupants of a stolen vehicle after a short pursuit early Tuesday morning. Officer Michael Hart made a traffic stop for speeding about 1:40 am and the vehicle fled as he approached the driver. The vehicle crashed in the alley in the 1200 block of Centennial when it ran into a large ditch at the north end of the alley. The male passenger fled the scene and was captured by Officer Hart after a brief foot pursuit. The female driver and passenger were taken to Wishard for treatment of their injuries.
