Original Article Teen driving stolen earthmover chased, shot by Tucson police Associated Press Jun. 3, 2005 07:34 AM TUCSON - A 14-year-old boy was critically wounded after leading Tucson police on a chase driving a stolen earthmover and then being shot by officers. The pursuit began last night in midtown Tucson and ended about 9 p-m on the city's west side. Police say officers shot the boy as he drove the tank-sized construction vehicle toward police cars in the Tucson Mountain foothills. Assistant Police Chief Kermit Miller says two officers fired at least one shot when the 40-foot-long vehicle headed toward at least 17 police vehicles. Miller says the officers thought the boy was going to run over the vehicles, with the officers in them. The teen's name wasn't immediately available. The earthmover struck a utility pole before police began the pursuit, which reached speeds of up to 30 miles an hour.
