A police pursuit involving a stolen vehicle concluded safely on Wednesday when LAPD Pacific Division officers apprehended a suspect in Hawthorne. The incident began around 12:10 p.m. on October 30, when officers attempted to stop the stolen vehicle. Instead of yielding, the driver, identified as an adult female, continued driving eastbound on the westbound lanes of the 105 freeway, endangering other motorists.
The pursuit was ultimately terminated when the suspect stopped at the Prairie Avenue off-ramp. Officers quickly took her into custody, and, fortunately, no injuries were reported during the incident. The LAPD Pacific Division commended the coordinated effort that ensured public safety and a swift resolution.
