The SUV traveled onto I-70 east towards I-675 south through Fairborn and Beavercreek.

Ohio State Highway Patrol Troopers briefly joined the pursuit but could not assist as the suspect exited onto Indian Ripple Rd.

The suspects continued west on Indian Ripple Rd and then went into Kettering on Dorothy Lane.

The suspects began showing “total disregard for the safety of the public” and started driving through intersections against red lights at a high rate of speed, according to the spokesperson.

The pursuit was terminated as the suspect reached Woodman Dr and turned north.

No one was injured and no property was damaged during the attempted robbery and police chase.
