LONGVIEW, Texas (KLTV) – Three Corvettes were stolen from a dealership in Longview early Sunday morning, launching a chase that reached all the way to Shreveport.
According to Gregg County Sheriff’s Office Chief Deputy Craig Harrington, three Corvettes were taken from Peters Chevrolet by drivers who fled eastbound towards Louisiana.
Harrington said one vehicle was spiked near Waskom on I-20, causing the driver to bail out and run on foot until being apprehended by authorities. A second car was recovered in Shreveport, and the third was found at a location in Louisiana that authorities have not yet released.
Law enforcement is in possession of all three vehicles, Harrington said, but no suspects are currently in custody and no further information is being released on them at this time. The vehicles are set to be returned to the dealership.
