The suspect fled officers responding to a suspicious vehicle parked in the 800 block of East Hermosa Drive in San Gabriel around 2:17 a.m. The suspect eventually crashed near Arrow Highway and the 605 freeway, according to Sgt. Allen Sam of the San Gabriel Police Department. Officers discovered the vehicle was stolen after they arrived to Hermosa Drive. The suspect drove away before officers could contact him, Sam said. The suspect crashed on private property in Baldwin Park and ran before officers caught and arrested him. The suspect was briefly hospitalized to be medically cleared for booking in the Alhambra jail on suspicion of grand theft auto and recklessly evading police, Sam said. The vehicle was reported stolen November 16 by the Los Angeles Police Department, Sam said. |
