Suspect arrested in Canyon Country after dangerous police chase

CANYON COUNTRY, SANTA CLARITA (KABC) — A driver was taken into custody Tuesday afternoon after leading authorities on a dangerous chase through the Palmdale area, oftentimes traveling at high speeds on the wrong side of the road and swerving through traffic.

It’s unclear what prompted the chase, but it was initiated by sheriff’s deputies on the southbound 14 Freeway and eventually made its way to the Canyon Country area.

The chase suspect drove up to 100 miles an hour at times.

The truck driver became trapped in traffic with cars stopped at a red light at Whites Canyon and Soledad Canyon roads. A CHP vehicle came up behind and collided into the vehicle, prompting the suspect to jump out the truck window and flee on foot.

Officers swarmed the parking lot of a nearby Big Lots and apprehended the suspect.
