Three juveniles are in the hospital after a crash involving a stolen vehicle Sunday morning.

According to Fairfield County Sheriff Alex Lape, a deputy was pursuing a Dodge Charger driving at a high speed on Hill Road in Pickerington. The vehicle fled when the deputy attempted to stop it, but was later found crashed and on fire near the 8400 block of Hill Road.

The driver and two passengers in the car, all juveniles, were pulled from the vehicle by the deputy. They were then transported to hospitals in the area due to injuries sustained from the crash.

It was determined the vehicle had been stolen out of Columbus, Ohio. At this time, it is not confirmed whether the juveniles in the accident had stolen the vehicle initially.
