High-Speed Pursuit Ends as Suspected DUI Driver Slams Into Wall in Encino
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA — A high-speed police chase through Los Angeles came to a violent end late Tuesday night when the driver of a fleeing vehicle slammed into a wall in the Encino neighborhood.
Authorities say the chase began when officers attempted to pull over a driver suspected of driving under the influence (DUI). The suspect refused to stop, leading law enforcement on a fast-paced pursuit through surface streets and freeways.
The chase ended abruptly when the driver lost control and crashed into a wall, bringing the vehicle to a halt. Aerial footage captured the dramatic moment, showing debris scattered across the road as officers surrounded the wrecked vehicle with guns drawn.
Miraculously, no bystanders were injured during the pursuit or crash.
The suspect was taken into custody at the scene and is expected to face charges including DUI, reckless driving, and evading police. Authorities say the driver may have been under the influence of drugs or alcohol, pending toxicology reports.
Residents in the area reported hearing a loud crash and seeing flashing lights moments after the collision.
This incident is the latest in a string of dangerous chases across Los Angeles, raising concerns over public safety and the growing frequency of suspects fleeing traffic stops.
