Mysterious Chase Causes Crash, Injuring 3

Three people were hurt when a pickup truck, being chased by an unknown party, crashed into a third vehicle in North Hollywood today.

A 68-year-old motorist in the third vehicle suffered minor injuries, as did the 20-year-old man driving the pickup and his 18-year-old woman, said Margaret Stewart of the Los Angeles Fire Department.

She said the pickup was being pursued by another vehicle, but it was not clear if that was a police chase or some other circumstance.

Firefighters and paramedics were dispatched to the crash in the 10500 block of Victory Boulevard at 10:28 a.m., Stewart said. That is at an S-curve on Victory, just west of the Burbank city limit.
