Police arrested two men who were involved in a home invasion, attempted to evade police and crashed a stolen car into the bowl of a skate park. Two suspects are still on the run.
Just before 11 p.m. Wednesday night Tampa Police Officers responded to a shots fired call in the 1900 block of E. Genesee Street where they saw a Kia Sol speeding off.
They determined that a home invasion had occurred and began to pursue the Kia.
The suspects drove the Kia into the Bro Bowl skatepark at the Perry Harvey Park. The suspects tried to run off after the car got stuck on a mound in the bowl but were taken into custody shortly after. The Kia was a reported stolen vehicle from the Tampa International Airport. There were no reported injuries to officers or suspects as a result of the pursuit.
