GUILDERLAND — Two Schenectady boys stole a car parked at Crossgates Mall, which ultimately collided with a Guilderland patrol car, according to a release from Guilderland Police.

The release said events unfolded this way:

On Saturday, at about 4:13 p.m., a person reported the missing car and, as police checked the area, they saw the car being driven on Crossgates Mall Road.

When police tried to stop the stolen car, the driver and a passenger fled on foot without first putting the car in park, causing it to roll and hit the patrol car.

Following a brief foot chase, police arrested two juveniles whose names are not being released because of their ages.

Each of them was charged with two felonies — second-degree unauthorized use of a motor vehicle and third-degree criminal possession of stolen property — and with two misdemeanors: second-degree obstruction of government administration and resisting arrest.

The juveniles were released to their guardians and will appear later at Albany County Probation.
