7:31pm–#Bridgeport CT– A pursuit of a stolen minivan ended almost as quickly as it began after a rollover accident.  Four teens tried to flee police down Highland Avenue and was on two wheels turning left onto Lyon Terrace which was a dead end.  The minivan landed on  a car.   At first it was thought the passengers were trapped but all four were able get out of the van on their own.  Three of the teens were taken to local hospitals.  A chicken dinner was found inside the car, I don’t know if police suspect fowl play.  As I was walking back to my car near the police station the fourth suspect in cuffs was seen getting in the ambulance for treatment.
