High Speed Chase Forces Westwood Boulevard Closure

Los Angeles, CA - A burglary suspect was at large while two others were in custody tonight, after a wild car chase that began in Simi Valley and ended in Los Angeles.

The incident unfolded Thursday at 7 p.m., when police received reports of a burglary at a Simi Valley residence, Sgt. Jeff Dominick of the Simi Valley Police Department told City News Service.
The suspects drove a silver Kia at speeds of nearly 100 mph on the eastbound Ronald Reagan (118) Freeway, ABC7 reported.

The suspects eventually transitioned onto the southbound San Diego (405) Freeway, CBS2 reported, recklessly bobbing, weaving and using emergency lanes before merging onto the Santa Monica (10) Freeway.
The suspects' car then lost a wheel, and two men exited on foot at an overpass by Washington Boulevard, then ran down National Boulevard in the Palms neighborhood of Los Angeles.

The Los Angeles Police Department, at that point, caught up with two of the suspects, and took them into custody.

The suspects were back en route to Simi Valley, Dominick said, and expected to be booked into the Ventura County Jail after speaking to authorities.

No information on the identity of the suspects was immediately available, Dominick said.
