SALEM LAKES, Wis. — A police pursuit that started in West Allis crossed part of Southeast Wisconsin and ended in Kenosha County in front of Salem Grade School.
The West Allis Police Department (WAPD) said officers pursued a Chevy Tahoe with Illinois license plates at about 2 a.m. Sunday.
When the chase reached Kenosha County on I-94, the suspects exited the highway and drove west. Eventually, they turned south on Antioch Road, where the Kenosha County Sheriff's Office (KCSO) set up tire deflation devices.
The tires of the vehicle popped, and the car stopped in front of Salem Grade School in Salem Lakes, authorities said.

Two suspects ran away from officers and have not yet been found.
Residents in the area said they are concerned about the suspects still on the loose.
"It's still scary. We keep our doors locked all day, all night," Amber Hansen, a local resident, said. "You live in a small town, and now you have to live in fear."
