Officers search for driver after they abandoned car during pursuit
The California Highway Patrol and other law enforcement officials are searching for the driver of a vehicle who led them on a pursuit Tuesday before they left their vehicle in the middle of a Koreatown street and took off on foot. The driver of the silver Ford Focus with front-end damage is wanted to allegedly making criminal threats, according to the California Highway Patrol. The Alhambra Police Department told KTLA the alleged threat happened yesterday, and the driver is accused of displaying a gun when making the threat. That person was spotted today in Alhambra, which is what sparked the pursuit, the APD added. When Sky5 arrived shortly after noon, the driver was on the freeway, though they quickly exited to surface streets in Pico-Union. On surface streets, the driver traveled at a relatively high speed and went through intersections and across lanes without stopping. Just before 12:15 p.m. near Koreatown, the driver pulled over and ran from the vehicle on New Hampshire Avenue near the intersection with 4th Street, leaving the car in the middle of the street. Law enforcement was continuing to search residential complexes for the driver as of just before 12:30 p.m. Nidia Becerra and Sofia Pop Perez contributed to this report.
