A morning high-speed pursuit ended in a violent multi-vehicle crash on the 405 Freeway in West Los Angeles Friday when the suspect drove in the wrong direction. LAPD officials said they responded to a radio call around 4:22 a.m. about a woman who backed into a patrol car at 4th Street and Rose Avenue in Venice. The pursuit was initiated just before 4:50 a.m. after the suspect refused to stop. The two officers involved in the initial crash were taken to an area hospital in stable condition.
During the chase, officers attempted multiple PIT maneuvers to stop the suspect ahead of the morning rush hour. While trying to escape authorities, the chase took a dangerous turn when the suspect took a U-turn and proceeded to drive in the wrong direction. A short time later, the suspect crashed at full speed into multiple vehicles near the Wilshire Boulevard exit.
