Officers responded around 12:15 p.m., the report said, and later deployed its helicopter to locate the vehicle.
The SUV was found roughly three miles down the road in the 7200 block of Leafwood Drive, SAPD said. Police were not authorized to pursue an arrest at the time, so they said they surrounded the vehicle instead.
An 18-year-old man bailed out of the SUV and ran about a block away from police on foot, according to police at the scene. He was later detained for questioning.
The man’s identity and charges are unclear at this time.
SAPD said the investigation is ongoing.
