PRINCETON, N.J. — Two suspects were taken into custody after a shoplifting incident led to a car crash and foot pursuit in Princeton on Wednesday evening, police said.
At approximately 5:54 p.m. on Jan. 29, Princeton police received multiple 911 calls reporting an active shoplifting at a commercial business on Hulfish Street. Witnesses described four suspects—two Black males and two Black females—dressed in dark clothing who entered the store, took merchandise, and left with the stolen goods in bags.
The suspects fled in a gray Tesla, which was later involved in a crash on Olden Lane. Following the accident, the occupants abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot.
Within minutes, police apprehended two suspects near the crash site: an adult female, later identified as Indiyah Bradsher, and a juvenile. Bradsher was taken to the Princeton Police Department, where she was processed and charged. Authorities also discovered she had an active arrest warrant out of Bucks County, Pennsylvania. She was later transported to the Mercer County Correctional Center, while the juvenile was released to a guardian.
Despite an extensive search assisted by K-9 units and multiple law enforcement agencies, the remaining two suspects were not located. The total value of the stolen merchandise is still being determined, and the incident remains under investigation.
