MILL CREEK, Wash. — The Mill Creek Police Department (MCPD) says two suspects who allegedly stole an Amazon delivery van in Seattle, drove to Snohomish County and led law enforcement on a chase in Mill Creek.

Just before midnight on November 18th, Flock license plate reading cameras alerted police to a stolen Amazon van driving through Mill Creek.

Officers started to pursue the van with assistance from the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office, who used a stop stick to disable van, MCPD said.

The two suspects inside were arrested.

Authorities learned they allegedly stole the van from a delivery driver in Seattle while he was on his route, according to police.

The suspects were booked into the Snohomish County Jail facing counts of possession of a stolen vehicle, a stolen firearm, eluding police, among other charges.
