Shoplifter Crashes in New Berlin

A chase and crash in New Berlin this weekend has one man facing charges.

Investigators say a shoplifter led the Wisconsin State Patrol on a short chase that ended in a crash at Moorland and Cleveland in New Berlin. After the crash the four people inside the vehicle, including two children under the age of 12, tried to run. Police were able to stop all four. 

An adult male was transported to Froedtert Hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries. Investigators say he's accused of shoplifting at a Sports Authority store in Brookfield before the crash.
