GREEN TOWNSHIP, Ohio (WXIX) - Two men wanted in connection with a home invasion and robbery in Green Township have been arrested after an Ohio police chase ended in Northern Kentucky.

Aaron Clower, 18, and 19-year-old Zachery Harp are each facing charges of felonious assault, theft and aggravated burglary, according to the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office.

The two men join two juveniles in custody following a home invasion and robbery early Tuesday on Calmhaven Drive in Green Township, the sheriff’s office said.

Shortly after 12 a.m., the four suspects drove away from the home, but a sheriff’s deputy spotted their vehicle.

The deputy chased the suspects’ vehicle into Miami Township.

During the chase, the sheriff’s office says the suspects shot at the deputy. No one was hit by the gunfire.

At some point, the suspects ditched the vehicle and ran into a wooded area.
