Isaac Zackery-Barnes entered the plea to charges of second-degree eluding and third-degree receiving stolen property, Hanover Police Chief Michael Loock said.

Zackery-Barnes fled from Hanover officers in a stolen vehicle with two juveniles in Sept. 2020, Loock said.

The vehicle crashed in Parsippany, and the trio were arrested following a brief foot chase, police said.

Meanwhile, Zackery-Barnes was also involved in a Union County stolen vehicle pursuit and crash that injured two police officers and led to charges for another man and a teen on Nov. 9, according to Mountainside PD.

Zackery-Barnes will be sentenced Jan. 6, 2022 to 10 years in state prison for eluding with a concurrent five-year sentence for receiving stolen property, authorities said.
