A fiery crash, which sent a car into a residence during a high-speed pursuit late Sunday sent three people to the hospital and brought an arrest, Harrington police spokesman Capt. Earl K. Brode said.
A fleeing vehicle driven by Michael A. Robinson, 19, of Millsboro, left Front Street near a curve and struck a home, which quickly became engulfed in flames, police said. An adult living at the home was on the porch and suffered non-life-threatening injuries, along with two adult females in the vehicle.
Police said the pursuit began at approximately 10:28 after a vehicle was seen speeding on U.S. 13 near Corn Crib Road. A patrol officer attempted to make a stop, and Capt. Brode said that a chase lasting approximately 10 to 15 minutes ensued. According to Capt. Brode, the vehicle reached a speed in excess of 100 mph as a fully marked Dodge Charger police vehicle with its emergency equipment activated attempted to make a stop.
