SOLON, OH — Three teenagers fled a car crash on June 27. They drove a red Mazda through a fence and struck two trees before running away. They were later arrested by police.

Witnesses said the car was leaving a party on Forest Glen Avenue, driving at a high speed, before it crashed through the fence on Green Ridge and hit the trees. The people in the car then jumped out and ran from the scene.

Police determined the Mazda belonged to a 16-year-old Forest Glen girl. Officers also determined that the girl had been driving two juvenile males home prior to the accident.
