(KRON) -- One of multiple suspects accused of ramming a vehicle through a GameStop in San Leandro on Tuesday morning before stealing numerous gaming consoles was arrested, according to the San Leandro Police Department (SLPD).
Police responded just after 6 a.m. on the report of a burglary at GameStop’s Fashion Faire Place location on 15100 Hesperian Boulevard. Arriving officers found a vehicle that was used to ram into the storefront to gain entry and two suspect vehicles fleeing the scene, SLPD said.
A pursuit of the two vehicles ended when one crashed into an uninvolved motorist at the intersection of Hesperian Blvd. and 150th Avenue. A foot chase ensued and one of the two suspects who fled from the disabled vehicle was caught, according to authorities.
