RIDLEY TOWNSHIP, Pa. (CBS) - A driver in Delaware County led police on a foot chase after barreling through a yard and crashing into a shed overnight.

It happened on Academy Avenue in Ridley Township, around 2 a.m. Wednesday. Police confirm a rash of car burglaries lead to the chase.

Neighbors tell Eyewitness News the car veered off the road and traveled through a yard until smashing through a fence and crashing into a shed.

A neighbor says there were four people inside the car. Two were taken into custody and the other two led police on a foot chase. Those two remain on the loose.

A woman said she was not woken up by the crash, but instead by police banging on her door.

"I'm really shocked. I'm so far from the road, I would never expect a car coming through the back of the house," said the neighbor. "It was pinned in between the deck and the tree. Literally a hair from the house."

Police say the suspects are wanted for stealing from cars.
