Yaris Outruns CHP - Fremont Stolen Car

A delivery man had his blue Toyota Yaris stolen from a north Fremont Blvd location this morning.   Fortunately he left his phone in the car and was able to track the location of the vehicle.  Eventually Fremont officers located the vehicle north on 880 at Tennyson Road in Hayward.  The vehicle initially pulled over to the shoulder, but then accelerated.  FPD did not pursue..pulled off the road, but CHP picked it up.  West on 92 they went with CHP trying to catch the Yaris that was now exceeding 110 mph!  A Yaris at 110!  As the pursuit crossed the San Mateo Bridge and entered Foster City, CHP officers lost sight of the stolen Yaris.  Meanwhile, Fremont officers were still off with the victim tracking the vehicle.  They noticed it had been stopped at a location for several minutes in the area east of 101 and north of 92.  A CHP aircraft was enroute to assist, but a CHP motor officer located the vehicle abandoned.  A witness said the suspect was observed walking away and changing shirts.  CHP officers flooded the area and eventually located and arrested the stolen car driver.   If you are expecting a package or food delivery, it may be delayed.

  1. Dang 110! I didn’t know it codon that?! Glad to hear it ended well, meaning the car recovered, and the suspect arrested.
