Yesterday, a swift collaboration between the Antioch Police Department and Pleasant Hill Police Department, along with support from the Contra Costa Office of the Sheriff, led to the apprehension of suspects involved in an earlier incident. According to a report released by the Antioch Police Department, the event unfolded at around 2:57 p.m. near the intersection of F Street and 13th in Antioch, where the suspect vehicle was spotted and crashed into a fence.
The chase began after APD Dispatch received a tip about the vehicle's involvement in a prior incident in Pleasant Hill.

Per the Antioch Police Department’s Field Services Bureau, all suspects were apprehended following the coordinated response.
The aid rendered by the Antioch officers highlights the ongoing collaborative efforts of law enforcement agencies in Contra Costa County to address crime across municipal boundaries. The suspects' names and the specifics of their alleged crimes in Pleasant Hill have not been publicly disclosed.
