An unidentified 16-year-old teenage boy faces several charges following a 4-car crash in Methuen Sunday night at 9:30pm on Jackson Street. According to The Eagle Tribune, two individuals were injured in the accident, but the injuries were not considered to be life-threatening.
The teenager reportedly stole a Honda Accord in Lawrence on Camelia Teoli Way that belonged to the father of Rafael Rivera, 21. Rivera then followed the teen from Lawrence to Methuen in his Honda Integra after he witnessed the car being stolen. The teen collided with 3 separate vehicles: Rivera’s Integra, a Dodge Grand Caravan and a Chevrolet Blazer in the pursuit down Jackson Street.
The teenage boy faces charges of stealing a motor vehicle, driving to endanger, running 2 red lights, driving with no license, and a marked lanes violation.
