Hollywood Crash Ended Police Chase

An 18-minute chase ended up in a vehicle collision after a man hit another car at a Koreatown intersection recently.

Authorities say that the chase begun when the man allegedly pulled out a gun on police officers who were riding on an unmarked vehicle.

No one was reported with serious injuries though the speeding vehicle ran red lights and drove on the sidewalks which could have easily resulted to a pedestrian accident wherein he will also be accountable for.

Officials say he may be booked on charges of assault with a deadly weapon against a police officer.

Aside from this charge, he should face other traffic-related charges for endangering the lives of pedestrians and other motorists in the area by being a negligent driver.

Teen Dies in Crash on Her Way to School

An 18-year-old California State University Los Angeles student Beth Amstone died on the scene of a single vehicular crash when she was ejected from her vehicle driven by her boyfriend, Deshawn Johnson, who was taking her to a bus stop to school.

Authorities are yet to rule out speeding as the cause of the accident but it appears that Johnson was not driving under the influence of alcohol when the accident happened.

It is possible that Amstone wasn’t wearing her seatbelt during the crash as she was ejected from her vehicle onto the pavement while her boyfriend only sustained minor injuries.

This tragedy should be a warning to all motorists to always wear their seatbelts whether travelling short or long distances as road accidents can happen to anyone at any given time.
