Valle did eventually get off the 91 Freeway in the Compton area, eventually stopping long enough for officers to get out of their vehicles before driving off again. Valle then continued, before driving into what appeared to be a trailer park in Compton in the area of E. Victoria Street and S. Laurel Park Road.

The driver eventually pulled over for a final time in the area before trying to run from the vehicle. That's when officers chased her down and tackled her before bringing her into custody.
