As the deputy pursued the vehicle on Rice Street, someone called 911 to report a woman was carjacked and shot on I-35E and Little Canada Road, and the vehicle that was stolen was the one the deputy was pursuing. However, the report of the shooting was later determined to be false — the vehicle was found to have been stolen out of Brooklyn Park, Linders said.
Another deputy then performed a PIT maneuver, making the vehicle inoperable, Linders said. Two male suspects again jumped out of the vehicle, both with guns in their hands, and ran off on foot. Two females inside the vehicle were taken into custody.
