Kettering, Ohio — On August 19, 2026, at approximately 11:15 a.m., Kettering Police Officers were alerted to a theft suspect driving a stolen Chevy Suburban on Smithville Road near Forrer Boulevard. Detectives and patrol officers located the stolen vehicle parked by a gas pump at the BP on South Smithville Road. Because this same vehicle fled from the Riverside Police Department the previous day, officers positioned their vehicles around it to prevent it from fleeing again. Upon seeing and hearing police lights and sirens, the driver quickly entered the stolen vehicle and attempted to flee, repeatedly ramming police vehicles. Several Officers standing by those vehicles were nearly struck while some officers remained inside their vehicles when they were hit. As the suspect continued revving the engine and spinning the tires in an attempt to flee, officers approached the vehicle to take the suspect into custody and stop the danger to the public. The suspect refused to comply. Officers ultimately used a window punch to break the driver-side window, deployed a Taser, and removed the suspect from the vehicle. During this process, a handgun was observed on the front driver's seat. The suspect, identified as 22-year-old Angelo Locurto, was taken into custody. The handgun was determined to be stolen. Suspected narcotics were also located inside the vehicle. A grand jury initially approved multiple charges against Locurto, including grand theft of a motor vehicle, obstruction of official business, failure to comply, assault on police officers, and several firearm-related offenses. On October 6, however, Locurto pleaded guilty to six offenses: grand theft, two counts of failure to comply, assault on a police officer, and two counts of receiving stolen property. Rather than receiving a prison sentence, Locurto was sentenced to five years of probation, two rehabilitation programs, a DUI Victim Impact Program, and restitution totaling $8,589.62—$6,089.62 to the Ohio Attorney General's Office and $2,500 to the Kettering Police Department. In addition to these convictions, Locurto has a prior criminal history that includes Failure to Comply, Improper Handling of a Firearm in a Motor Vehicle, Drug Possession, Drug Paraphernalia, Receiving Stolen Property, and Possessing Criminal Tools. On August 18th, Locurto rammed police cruisers and fled from officers, and on August 19th, he rammed police vehicles in an attempt to escape. He was driving a stolen vehicle and had a stolen handgun in his possession.
