4 Colorado Armed Robbery Suspects Arrested Following High-Speed Chase In Martinez

MARTINEZ (CBS SF) -- A wild police chase ends with a neighborhood on lockdown and four people in handcuffs Wednesday morning.

Three people were arrested after the Cadillac they were driving crashed on Arthur Road around 3 a.m. Officers used spike strips to pop the tires on Southbound I-680.

It's the end of a high-speed police chase that started 30 miles away in Vacaville but stemmed from an armed robbery in Colorado.

As the three people were detained near the vehicle, another man got away. Officers locked down the neighborhood for about two hours as they searched.

"They did a search of my backyard," said neighbor Tanya Smith. "They had their guns all pulled out. I'm like freaking out. I have a 9-year-old son at home and he was all excited."

Police arrested a fourth suspect less than a mile from the crash site hiding just steps from Smith's backyard.

"They had him on the side of my yard here and he was sitting on the bench in handcuffs." Smith said. "I'm glad they got him out and it's over."

Exact charges have not been announced.
