A 16-year-old is facing a handful of charges after a crash in Chatham.
Chatham-Kent police say officers responded to a single motor vehicle collision just after 6:30 p.m. Sunday night on Park Avenue West.
According to police, a pick-up truck hit a railway crossing at Park Avenue West and Degge Street.
Police say the truck continued to drive on Park Ave W. before going into a beanfield.
Officers located the vehicle but the vehicle failed to stop and continued to drive through the beanfield, crossing the roadway to a cornfield and colliding with an apple tree.
Police say the driver attempted to flee on foot but was arrested after a brief foot chase.
The investigation determined the vehicle was stolen from a local business.
The Chatham youth is charged with failing to remain at the scene of a collision, failing to stop for police, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, mischief, theft of a motor vehicle and possession of stolen property over $5000.
