Police: Men who ditched stolen vehicle near South Busway get away
Two men who ditched an allegedly stolen SUV eluded police for two hours before authorities called off a search for them, Pittsburgh police spokesman Chris Togneri said.
Officers stopped the Chevrolet Equinox at about 7:05 a.m. near West Liberty and Pioneer avenues, according to police. The men got out of it and ran into a wooded area near the South Busway.
Police used a search dog to canvass the area but called it off at 9:30 a.m. because the dog was exhausted. Investigators have evidence that should lead to the quick arrest of the men, Togneri said.
Port Authority Police and the Allegheny County Sheriff’s office assisted Pittsburgh officers in the search, he said.
