LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) — Police arrested an 18-year-old man for reportedly stealing a gun from a car before leading officers on a chase through Louisville.

According to Louisville Metro Police, Davon Brown and two other teenagers broke into a car near the PRP neighborhood Wednesday morning.

The victim said the group shot at him several times, but missed.

Officers said Brown turned off his headlights and started driving recklessly to get away from police. He eventually crashed into three parked cars before being taken into custody. The getaway car was stolen, according to officers.

The two teens with Brown were also arrested, but their names have not been released given they are underage.

Brown faces a long list of charges, including robbery, receiving stolen property and criminal mischief.
