BAKERSFIELD, Calif. — UPDATE (12:16 p.m.): Bakersfield Police say a third suspect was in the suspect vehicle during the chase, but ran from the vehicle and is still wanted.

Investigators say there were two male suspects in the vehicle at the start of the chase. Then, at some point, the passenger jumped out of the vehicle and a female suspect jumped into the car.

Police were assisted by KCSO and Air One. Investigators say the chase was brief, which allowed them to continue following the suspects.

The suspects, a 28-year-old man and an 18-year-old woman, have been arrested. Their names and charges have not been released at this time.

There is no description of the third suspect.
