HARRISON TOWNSHIP, Ohio (WDTN) — Montgomery County Sheriff’s deputies were led on a chase Wednesday morning after a reported armed robbery.
The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office reported that around 8:20 a.m. on Wednesday, deputies responded to a business in the 3900 block of Salem Avenue on a report of an armed robbery.
Upon arrival, deputies learned that the owner of the business and an associate confronted two suspects in a truck who they believed had auto parts stolen from the business.
The suspects rapidly fled the lot, allegedly almost striking the owner and associate.
