Man Accused Of Stealing Unmarked Police Car Captured

DENVER (CBS4)- Police in Denver have arrested the man they believe stole an unmarked police cruiser and led police on a chase through several neighborhoods last month.

Police arrested Ravi Anthony Guerrero. Guerrero, 38, was arrested on charges including investigation of motor vehicle aggravated theft, second-degree assault and menacing with a deadly weapon.

It all started Aug. 28 when police responded to the scene of a hit-and-run near Dakota and Clay. When an officer got out of his vehicle to investigate, the suspect, now identified as Guerrero, jumped in and started driving.

Police tweeted an update in the case that they had arrested Guerrero.

A witness captured an image of the man police were looking for as he was running from the first hit-and-run scene. That man was later identified as Guerrero.

The suspect drove away in the police cruiser and crashed three times before he ran away from officers.

Police did not provide details about how they captured Guerrero.
