Overview
- Police say the pursuit began around 9:45 p.m. in the Wilshire area after officers spotted a stolen dark-blue Infiniti sedan.
- The driver stopped to fill up at a Shell station in Lynwood as ABC7’s AIR7 filmed, with the clip later going viral after a repost on X by @FearedBuck.
- LAPD and CHP ground units engaged early but repeatedly pulled back for public safety as helicopters continued tracking from above.
- Around 11:20 p.m., the suspect bailed under the 10 Freeway at Alameda in the Fashion District, and police believe he was picked up by another driver or carjacked someone before getting away.
- Investigators recovered the abandoned Infiniti and reportedly found a firearm inside as they analyze footage and assess tips, with the suspect still at large.
