Two 16-year-olds inside the car were taken into custody.
One teen was charged with aggravated vehicular hijacking, possession of a stolen vehicle, aggravated fleeing, and eluding a police officer.
The other teen was charged with aggravated vehicular hijacking, unlawful use of a weapon, and possession of a stolen vehicle, police said.
The two are awaiting a bond hearing at the Cook County Juvenile Detention Center.
