Deputies Stop Another Stolen Car Full of Teenagers in Rancho Palos Verdes
Deputies pulled over five teens, arresting two. Last week a stolen car full of teens flipped during a high-speed police pursuit.

Two teenagers were arrested on suspicion of vehicle theft after a deputy in Rancho Palos Verdes found them in a stolen car being driven by an unlicensed 17-year-old, authorities said today.
In addition to the driver, the vehicle was occupied by five other teenagers, ranging in age from 11 to 16, when deputies pulled it over about 4:30 p.m. Sunday at the intersection of Palos Verdes Drive West and Hawthorne Boulevard, according to officials at the sheriff’s Lomita Station.
All the teenagers are from San Pedro which is where the vehicle was reported stolen on Saturday, according to the sheriff’s department.

Four of the youths were released to their parents without being arrested, according to Lomita Station watch commander Lt. John Burcher.
The arrests came two days after a stolen Lexus driven by a 15-year-old girl and carrying four other juvenile burglary suspects crashed in Rancho Palos Verdes during a brief chase by sheriff’s deputies.
