A juvenile from Milwaukee led authorities on a high-speed chase on state Highway 29 early Thursday, according to the Shawano County Sheriff’s Department.
A sheriff’s deputy spotted a vehicle driving recklessly and at high speeds near the County Road K exit about 2 a.m.
The driver ignored the deputy’s attempt to pull over the vehicle, and a chase reaching speeds of 120 mph ensued as the vehicle headed east toward Bonduel.
Deputies were able to spike the tires of the fleeing vehicle, which eventually came to a stop near the Kwik Trip in Bonduel, according to the sheriff’s department.
A 16-year-old boy was taken into custody and referred to social services for knowingly fleeing an officer and resisting/obstructing an officer. He also did not have a valid driver’s license, according to authorities.
A 16-year-old passenger, a girl from Milwaukee, was also referred to social services for obstructing an officer.
A 17-year-old girl who was also in the vehicle was not facing any charges.
