Written by AARON CASTREJON CityWatch Editor SAN DIMAS - A man and woman are still at-large after escaping deputies who were pursuing them for taking two catalytic converters early Sunday.
The thefts were reported at 6 a.m. November 14 at a business near the intersection of Lone Hill Avenue and West Covina Boulevard. The suspects fled in a truck, according to Sgt. Gallego of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s San Dimas Station. Within 10 minutes of the thefts taking place, a deputy located the suspects on the northbound 57 freeway at the 210 freeway interchange. A deputy attempted to pull over the truck, but the driver refused to stop, according to Sheriff’s radio traffic. The driver fled the deputy at speeds near 100 miles per hour, forcing the San Dimas Sheriff’s Station to end the pursuit due to the dangerous driving. The truck was last seen exiting the westbound 210 freeway onto grand Avenue in Glendora and out of sight. Gallego did not have a description for the man and woman seen taking the catalytic converters. She did not know if the converters were taken from private vehicles, or vehicles tied to the business.
