Two men were arrested Wednesday after a high-speed chase in East Bakersfield, which ended with one car crashing into a front yard.
A sheriff’s deputy was patrolling on Center and Hill Streets around 10:30 a.m. when he saw two cars driving recklessly.
The deputy caught up to the two cars and chased them to a neighborhood on Mesa Street.
One of the cars crashed into a front yard. The driver, identified as Joshua Forduice, tried to run away. He was arrested for possession of a stolen car and drug related charges.
The second driver, Alejandro Valdenegro, was arrested on drug charges.
