A high-speed chase that started in West Sacramento, early Tuesday morning, as a traffic stop. The suspect took off and lead officers on a wild ride down Highway 50, before exiting at Howe Avenue. The chase continued down the American River Bike Trail with the suspect ramming the gate at Cadillac Drive and continued down the bike trail past Watt Avenue. The suspect then double backed and exited the bikepath back on the road at Spanos Court. Officers brought the chase to an end utilizing a PIT maneuver (essentially forcing the suspects vehicle to spin-out) at the intersection of Hurley Way and Bell Street. No one was injured and the suspect was taken into custody without further incident.

One of the inherent risks of the very nature of “rapid” and immediate news/information delivery is that many, even often times, early information is inaccurate.

We will update, correct, fix those errors in information as quickly as possible as we become aware of them. We make every effort to fact check and deliver accurate information to you as it is happening. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we aim to serve you “rapidly” and responsibly.
