A man and a woman who allegedly stole from Wal-Mart on Friday caused a serious accident after a high-speed chase.
It all went down around 7 p.m. in Chillicothe after police received a 9-1-1 call from loss prevention that a man and woman shoplifted from the store. When police were arriving, the couple was pulling out of the parking lot in a car. Police tried to pull the car over and that is when the high speed chase ensued.
The couple t-boned a car filled with children on Bridge Street before continuing on outside of the city limits. The kids in the other car were not seriously hurt.
The two bailed just outside of town in a small foot chase before police caught them. They were both taken to Adena Regional for injuries from the crash, and were later transferred to Grant in Columbus.
No names have been released.
