Two unidentified juveniles are in custody following a July 15 armed carjacking that started in Grant County and ended in Noblesville following a chase in vehicles and on foot, with one suspect apprehended in the Hamilton East Public Library building.

According to the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office, the vehicle was stolen at gunpoint in Marion, about 40 miles north of Noblesville. State law enforcement agencies shared information about the vehicle, which was reported seen in Madison County headed southbound on Ind. 37.

“While our deputies were looking for the vehicle, the 911 Emergency Communications Center received a driving complaint on a vehicle matching the description of the suspect vehicle,” the news release stated. “(Hamilton County) deputies located the suspect vehicle at SR 37 and 206th Street southbound. Our patrol deputies pulled behind the suspect vehicle to initiate a traffic stop and the suspect vehicle then fled from deputies.”

The sheriff’s office reported that the vehicle’s driver evaded stop sticks at Ind. 37 southbound and 186th Street and ran off the road at Connor Street, crashing into two uninvolved vehicles.

“After crashing, the suspects in the vehicle fled the scene,” the news release stated. “(One) juvenile suspect ran west from the scene and was apprehended in the Hardee’s parking lot. The other suspect ran northwest from the scene. A perimeter was set up in the area around the businesses and the Hamilton East Public Library Noblesville campus. During a search of the library conducted by several law enforcement agencies, the second suspect was found.”

The sheriff’s office reported that both juvenile suspects were taken into custody without further incident and there were no injuries. The case remains under investigation.

Other law enforcement agencies that assisted with the arrests were the Noblesville Police Department, Fishers Police Department, Westfield Police Department, Indiana State Police, Hamilton County Emergency Management and the Elwood Police Department.
