THREE COUNTY CHASE STARTS IN RITCHIE

(06/10/2006)
At least two suspects in a high-speed chase through three counties remain at large, after authorities say the chase began Friday in Ritchie County.

Police attempted to stop a speeding pickup truck that had been reported stolen in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania.

The truck reached speeds of up to 100 miles per hour as the driver led police on a chase through Ritchie, Doddridge and Harrison counties.

The chase ended in Harrison County when the truck, traveling the wrong way in the westbound lanes of US 50, collided with a tractor-trailer.

Authorities say three people fled on foot, but they captured 28-year-old Charity Abbott of Baltimore.
