LAWRENCE - A toddler who was in the back seat of an SUV that was stolen in Lawrence Monday night has been found safe. Two suspects were taken into custody after a chase. 

State Police said the 22-month-old girl was inside a silver Honda Pilot that was stolen on South Broadway at about 8 p.m. 

The girl was later dropped off at Lawrence Hospital and is safe, State Police said.

A 33-year-old man from Methuen, and a 29-year-old woman from Haverhill were taken into custody after a chase. State Police troopers and Chelmsford Police pursued the stolen SUV, stopping it on Route 495 South in Berlin.
