Four juvenile suspects have been arrested following a stolen vehicle pursuit and foot chase that included an exchange of gunfire, Fremont police said.
An officer who spotted the stolen vehicle about 4:45 p.m. near Cushing Parkway and Auto Mall Parkway waited for other units to arrive before attempting an enforcement stop, but the driver fled northbound on Cushing Parkway and turned west on Stevenson Boulevard, police said.
The vehicle stopped when it came to the dead-end of Stevenson Boulevard and several suspects fled on foot, with one firing "several rounds" at pursuing officers, who returned fire at the shooter, police said.
No officers were injured during the exchange of gunfire, police said.
A perimeter was established around the area and two juvenile suspects, neither injured, were initially taken into custody.
Two more suspects were found following an intensive search that included the Fremont Police SWAT team, police said shortly after 11 p.m.
The scene is near the border with Newark and the Newark, Union City, Milpitas and East Bay Regional Park District police also assisted, along with the California Highway Patrol.
