HANCOCK COUNTY, Ind. — Police are looking for a suspect in a robbery and assault who led officers on a chase that ended when his car crashed into a house.
A spokesperson with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department said a suspect, believed to be 19 years old, robbed and pistol-whipped a man late Thursday night near Serene Stream Way and Fisher Creek Drive, just west of I-465 on the east side. When an officer arrived, police say the suspect sped off toward Hancock County.
The chase ended just after midnight when the suspect’s car crashed into a home near New Palestine. Police say no one inside the house was hurt, and the suspect ran from the scene. Investigators say they found guns inside the red Nissan the suspect was driving and say the car was a rental.
No description of the suspect has been released.
