MAMARONECK, NY (January 30, 2025) — On January 27, 2025, at around 6:22 PM, the Village of Mamaroneck Police Department (VMPD) was alerted to a significant two-car accident at the intersection of Fenimore Road and Northrup Avenue. Upon arrival, officers found two heavily damaged vehicles and a downed utility pole.

The driver of one of the involved vehicles, a 43-year-old woman from Larchmont, was treated at the scene before being transported to Westchester Medical Center. She reported that the other vehicle, which ran a stop sign at the bottom of the I-95 North exit ramp, collided with her car, leading both to crash into the utility pole. The occupants of the second vehicle then fled on foot.

The second car was later identified as being involved in an earlier incident with an NYPD patrol vehicle, last seen heading north on I-95. A multi-agency response ensued, involving law enforcement from Mamaroneck, New Rochelle, Westchester County, New York State, and New York City to locate the fleeing suspects.

Within a short time, two juveniles, aged 15 and 16 from the Bronx, were spotted at a nearby gas station. Another 15-year-old from the Bronx was found by Town of Mamaroneck Police in the vicinity of Country Road. The fourth suspect, a 16-year-old also from the Bronx, was apprehended near Mohegan Road by Westchester County and New Rochelle officers.

VMPD Detectives confirmed the identities of the driver and passengers using video surveillance, radio communications from the Westchester County Real Time Crime Center, and information from NYPD officers involved in the prior incident.

All four juveniles underwent medical evaluation; one was hospitalized briefly at Westchester County Medical Center before being released to his guardian. The others declined further medical attention.

The 16-year-old identified as the driver was charged with Leaving the Scene of an Incident involving Personal Injury, classified as an A Misdemeanor, and was handed over to the New York Police Department for further action.
