The Paso Robles Police Department notified the California Highway Patrol of a stolen white 2010 Honda Odyssey on Sunday at 12:45 p.m.

Officers from the Atascadero Police Department heard the CHP's radio broadcast and located the vehicle traveling south on Highway 101 near San Ramon Road.

Officers initiated a traffic stop on the stolen vehicle, and a vehicle pursuit ensued on Highway 101 with speeds exceeding 100 mph at times.

The vehicle exited the freeway in San Luis Obispo and was involved in a non-injury traffic collision.

The vehicle continued north on Highway 1 before coming to a stop after being disabled near the California Men’s Colony.

As a result, Perez-Andrade also faces potential charges of felony child endangerment.

Authorities determined that the 2010 Honda Odyssey was stolen in Santa Maria on Saturday.

He was transported to the San Luis Obispo County Jail and is being held on $100,000 bail.
