Stolen Car Chase Ends In Apartment Complex Crash

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) - A driver is in custody after leading police on a pursuit through Sacramento for several miles before crashing into the parking lot of an apartment complex.

Police say a patrol unit saw the speeding car on Sutterville and Freeport Boulevard.

When officers tried to pull the vehicle over, the driver took off leading them on a chase that reached speeds of 80 miles an hour.

The driver finally lost control at 12th and G streets in downtown Sacramento, narrowly missing someone walking in the area, slamming through a fence and side-swiping a couple of cars in an apartment complex parking lot.

Police say the car was reported stolen just hours before.
