What started as a reported shoplifting and a "disturbance" at a Cabela's store ended with seven children being arrested following a pursuit.
Woodbury Police said it was called to the Cabela's at 8400 Hudson Rd. at 1:37 p.m. Saturday, where employees said "several teens were involved in a disturbance and shoplifting incident."
According to police, the youths were reportedly "associated with a stolen vehicle," and had been attempting to steal goods from the store including an Airsoft gun and a pistol magazine.
The suspects fled a Woodbury police patrol car in the stolen vehicle, heading north into Lake Elmo on County Road 13. A few miles later, police used a PIT maneuver to stop the vehicle around two miles north of I-94.
The suspects then fled on foot, sparking a search using K9 officers and drones, with several local residents calling in sightings following a CodeRED emergency warning.
Seven boys aged 12 to 15 were taken into custody, and remain under investigation.
Teens fleeing police crash in stolen Kia The incident in Woodbury was one of two major chases involving teenagers in the east metro on Saturday.
The other saw four teens – a 14-year-old boy and three girls aged 15 to 17 – fleeing police in a stolen Kia on northbound I-35E, eventually crashing into the median barrier in an attempt to avoid police stop sticks.
The teens then fled the vehicle and ran across the interstate, only to be stopped a short distance later by state troopers.
It comes amid a wave of thefts of Kia and Hyundai vehicles in the Twin Cities and nationally. Some of the thefts have been linked to viral social media videos that show certain Kia and Hyundai models can be started using a USB cable.
Hey, they don’t pay no mind
If you’re under 18 you won’t be doing any time
Hey, come out and play

Otherwise it'd be time for...
Exactly WHICH models may I ask?
It’s just crazy what is going on in and around the Twin Cities now days. There is a live YouTube broadcast every Friday night called Live on Patrol where the local sheriff spends most of his time chasing down stolen and carjacked vehicles. Last week one stolen wasn’t even being chased but it was going about 140 mph down a relatively busy street. They caught it on camera and it was just a blur. Seconds later he hit two other cars and totaled the Charger Hellcat. The 16 year old driver ended up in the backseat with the steering wheel between his legs. The fire department had to cut the roof off to get him out. The last report was he is in the hospital in serious condition. Hope he hurts.

I wonder what adults are putting these teens up to this.
Lesser/no charges, due to their age?
These are some pretty hardened/seasoned criminals....TWO stolen cars, stolen Cabela’s merch, fleeing cops on highways, then, on foot.
Who’s training/paying them?
LOL.
Heard that before. Friend of mine saw black person calling their kid shi-thead and told me about it.
