DuJuan Washington

Vehic/Purs

Police said four teens stole a Dodge Neon in Southfield, drove it to an apartment complex at 9 Mile and Greenfield, and abandoned it. They then allegedly stole a 2003 Jeep Liberty and a 2002 Dodge Stratus. Detroit officers saw the vehicles driving erratically on Redford Street at around 1 a.m. and gave chase, police said. According to police, after a few blocks the Stratus hit the Jeep from behind, causing the Jeep to roll over. DuJuan Washington was killed. The driver, James Leon Davis, 15, was critically injured. The officers initially said they'd stopped to render assistance and left when another car showed up to relieve them. The officers caught up to the Stratus after it crashed into a guardrail in Redford Township. The driver reportedly told police that the officers had never stopped chasing them.
