Deputies find 2 young children in suspect's car after Sacramento chase, crash

SACRAMENTO – Authorities say a suspect led deputies on a chase in south Sacramento with his two young children in the car – a pursuit that ended in a crash. The Sacramento County Sheriff's Office says, Tuesday afternoon, deputies spotted a vehicle on Highway 99 with no license plates. Deputies tried to pull the suspect over, but the driver continued on. With deputies in pursuit, the suspect – later identified as 28-year-old Xavier Torres – got off the freeway and drove into a neighborhood. Just a couple minutes into the chase, deputies say the suspect crashed into a bystander's vehicle near Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and 23rd Avenue. Deputies quickly took Torres into custody and discovered that he had his two-year-old and six-month-old children in the car the whole time.
