A man attempting to evade Capitol Police crashed a stolen vehicle into a barricade on the Capitol complex early Sunday, and officers arrested the driver and passenger on gun and other charges, police said.
A Capitol Police officer saw a white Infiniti Q50 idling at a green light near Union Station at about 2:15 a.m. and tried to make a stop on a suspicion the driver was impaired, the Capitol Police said in a news release.
The driver sped away and crashed the car into the vehicle barricade near First and D streets Northeast, the agency said. Both occupants — Ricardo Glass and Onosetale Okojie, two 20-year-olds from Washington — fled the crash scene and were tracked down by officers and arrested, the agency said.
