One teen was arrested and two more are at large, authorities said. (File photo) NEWARK -- Authorities are looking for two teenagers who they say were involved in a police pursuit that resulted in two injuries Wednesday morning - the third such chase in Newark over the past week.
The chase occurred at about 11 a.m., when police saw an allegedly stolen car that is believed to have been involved in a robbery driving through Newark, Acting Essex County Prosecutor Carolyn A. Murray announced in a release Wednesday. It ended when the vehicle struck two other cars -- one parked, and the other carrying two state workers -- near Fabian Place and Nye Avenue, she said.

A juvenile female believed to be driving the car was taken into custody and charged with receiving stolen property, Murray said. Two juvenile males who authorities say were in the car remain at large, she said.
The two people in the struck car were hospitalized with minor injuries, authorities said.
The Professional Standard Bureau of the Essex County Prosecutor's Office is investigating the pursuit, officials said. The Bureau is also investigating two similar chases over the past week - one on Aug. 27 in which a fleeing car struck a 79-year-old pedestrian, and one Tuesday in which a teen suspect died after being hit by a police cruiser, authorities have said.
