The vehicle’s location was being tracked due to a stolen laptop computer that was in the vehicle.</p> <p>Bridgewater Police officers located the vehicle on Water Street at about 8:52 a.m., but the driver refused to stop for police. The driver led police on a pursuit onto Old Farm Road, where the driver went over a sidewalk to avoid a cruiser that attempted to block the street.</p> <p>The driver then led police onto Walnut Street, Cherry Street, East Street, Old Plymouth Street, Plymouth Street, and then into East Bridgewater. In East Bridgewater, with East Bridgewater Police and Bridgewater Police now involved, the pursuit continued onto Eliab Latham Way and Shelby Court, where the driver was stopped.</p> <p>The driver refused to comply with police commands to get out of the vehicle, so officers smashed a driver’s side window, opened the vehicle’s door and took GROSSETT into custody without further incident. There were no reported injuries.</p> <p>GROSSETT refused to identify himself at the booking window, but police were able to identify him using identification found in the stolen vehicle.</p> <p>Among the items located in the stolen vehicle was a wedding dress belonging to the vehicles owner, and his bride-to-be.</p> <p>GROSSETT will be arraigned Friday in Brockton District Court.</p> <p><em>These are allegations. All suspects are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.</em></p> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"> <p class="entry-meta"> </p> </footer></blockquote><br> Cancel Views: 420
