Two Ohio teenagers are in custody after leading police on a car chase in Alabama that ended with officers shooting and injuring one of them, NBC News reported.
Cassidy Francis, 17, and Chase McKinney, 19, of Youngstown, Ohio, have been charged with two counts of attempted murder. Francis had been reported missing from Youngstown on Monday, according to NBC affiliate WFMJ. She will be charged as an adult.
The pair was traveling west of Birmingham when police received a call that the driver was drunk. Authorities tried to pull them over, but the car sped away, driving through roadblocks and ramming into police cruisers twice.
Police fired at the car, hitting McKinney in the shoulder. He was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
