FORT BEND COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) -- An attempt to stop an alleged shoplifter turned into a 25-minute police chase that ended with the suspect crashing a luxury vehicle in Sugar Land.

Sugar Land police officers responded at about 5:15 p.m. Thursday to a shoplifting call from a Home Depot along the Southwest Freeway.

The vehicle was spotted nearby, but the driver refused to stop once the officers got behind them.

According to police, the driver drove southbound into Rosenberg and then made a U-turn, driving northbound back into Sugar Land.
