Authorities arrested an 18-year-old man Monday after he allegedly carjacked his mother and held his younger sister against her will while leading Garden Grove police on a car chase, authorities said.

Officers were called shortly before 4 p.m. to Gilbert Street and Orangewood Avenue, when the 16-year-old sister of Azael Gonzales was heard screaming during a 911 call after he pushed his mother and other sister out of the car they were in, said police Lt. Chris Lawton.

She spoke with officers a short time later and said Gonzales, of Garden Grove, was driving recklessly at high speeds with her inside. Officers found the vehicle, but Gonzales refused to stop, and a chase ensued, Lawton said.

During the pursuit, other officers found Gonzales’ mother, who could not initially explain what happened because of a language barrier.

The chase extended into Anaheim, where officers lost Gonzales near Brookhurst Street and Ball Road. Minutes later, Garden Grove police made phone contact with Gonzales and convinced him to surrender around 5:05 p.m. in the area of Bristol Street and the 22 Freeway in Orange.

Gonzales was arrested on suspicion of multiple charges, including carjacking, kidnapping and felony evading.

His sister was not harmed. It was not immediately clear what prompted Gonzales to push his mother and sister out the car.
