SkyFOX was first over the scene in downtown Los Angeles as the suspect – inside a dark gray Inifiniti sedan – led the Los Angeles Police Department on the chase.

The suspect drove through parts of downtown LA, then passed Mid-City before ditching the car outside a Santa Monica location of the 24 Hour Fitness gym. At one point during the chase on the 10 Freeway, the suspect broke 140 mph trying to get away from cops.

One person was taken into custody during the search for the suspect. It is unknown if the person in handcuffs were the driver.

Outside of reckless driving, speeding and evading police, it is unknown if the suspect is linked to other crimes.
