Nevada Highway Patrol troopers chased down 2 suspected burglars in a stolen truck overnight.

NHP says they stopped the truck initially for speeding, but the driver took off.

The truck eventually crashed near the post office located on Sunset Road.

NHP was able to catch one of the suspects, who is a female.

The person driving the pickup is still on the run.

NHP says that the pair was involved in a burglary near Jones Boulevard and Warm Springs Road, but it is not clear when that happened.

The chase and crash took place around midnight.

Las Vegas police assisted NHP.
