A police chase in Massachusetts ended with the suspected thief in deep water, after he crashed his Jeep into a swimming pool. Lowell police say the suspect broke into a Rent-A-Center store and took two flat screen televisions.

The Jeep quickly sank to the bottom of the pool. When the suspect surfaced, he was taken into custody. The Jeep was eventually hoisted from the pool. Both televisions were found in the back of the vehicle.
