Solon, Ohio — On April 6, 2023, Solon Police Officers were alerted to the presence of a stolen vehicle on Aurora Road via an automated license plate reader system around 10:31 a.m.. Officer Butto located the vehicle on Aurora Road and learned that it was taken in an Aggravated Robbery reported to the Cleveland Police Department on April 4. The officer attempted to stop the vehicle on SOM Center Road south of Aurora Road with lights and siren in a marked police vehicle. The suspect vehicle, a blue Honda Odyssey minivan, did not stop. A chase ensued, traveling south on SOM Center Rd, west on Arthur Rd, and northbound on Solon Blvd. It lasted approx. one minute and forty-five seconds. The stolen car crashed into the rear of another vehicle on Solon Blvd near Roxbury Elementary School. A suspect (driver) exited the stolen Honda with a gun in his hand. Shots were fired by the officer as the suspect fled from the vehicle.

The suspect traveled southeast through some backyards, dropping the gun in the grass. After a short foot chase, the suspect surrendered. The foot chase lasted about 45 seconds. There were no injuries to the officer or suspect. The suspect’s firearm, a loaded semi-automatic .40 caliber Glock model 23, was recovered by police immediately after the safe capture of the suspect. The weapon was loaded with 22 bullets. It had an extended magazine. One of those bullets was in the chamber. It is not clear if the suspect had fired a weapon or not. A neighborhood canvass did not turn up any damage to property or injuries to citizens immediately afterwards. The 16-year-old boy was the only suspect involved in the stolen vehicle chase, he is currently being held at the Cuyahoga County Juvenile Detention Center on the following charges: suspicion of receiving stolen property, improper handling of a firearm, fleeing and eluding, aggravated menacing and carrying concealed weapons.
