Police report: LAPD was chasing suspect at time of crash that killed 2 innocent victims
Attorneys for the families of two innocent victims who were killed in a multi-vehicle crash claim that Los Angeles police were chasing a suspect at the time of the violent collision.
The four-vehicle pileup -- involving three cars and a semitruck -- happened shortly after 4 a.m. Aug. 19 at the intersection of Manchester Avenue and Broadway, according to the Los Angeles Police Department. An LAPD spokesperson initially said officers were not in pursuit when the crash happened, but a preliminary police report that was later released by the agency states that officers were chasing the suspect.
Officers had attempted to pull over the suspect's green Cadillac after seeing it speeding westbound on Manchester but the driver refused to stop, the LAPD said. The collision happened shortly afterward, when the vehicle ran a red light and collided with the others, police said. The force of the impact pushed the victims' car into the semitruck.
