A 14-year-old boy fleeing police in a stolen Mustang ran out of gas then jumps off a bridge.

A 14-year-old boy fleeing police in a stolen Mustang ran out of gas, so he tried to lose them by jumping off a bridge.

Just after 7 p.m. Wednesday, Woodhaven police put out a report of three Mustang Shelby GT500s that were stolen from the Flat Rock Assembly Plant lot. Brownstown Police found the three stolen cars on I-75 near Sibley and tried to stop them, but they fled.

Police followed one of the cars until the teen driver ran out of gas on an overpass on I-75 near Pleasant Street in Detroit. He jumped 25-30 feet into a vacant yard below the bridge.

"It was a tall bridge. We didn't expect that. I don't think the gentlemen expected it to be a far drop either," said Lt. Andrew Starzec with Brownstown police.

He suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was turned over to his mother at a hospital.

This theft in Woodhaven is the second one in a month. On Sept. 13, police said at least 12 Mustangs were stolen from the same lot.
