Police chase ends with drug bust in downtown Los Angeles – NBC Los Angeles

A police chase through downtown Los Angeles ended on Tuesday with the discovery of millions of dollars worth of cash and drugs.

It all started after 9:30 a.m. when California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers noticed a Ford pickup truck with “fully tinted windows” on Freeway 5.

When officers attempted to conduct a stop, the suspect vehicle refused to comply, leading the CHP on a chase that lasted approximately ten minutes.

But when the suspect finally stopped on 2nd Street near Figueroa Street, officers did more than just arrest him.

“During a search of the vehicle, they found over £190 worth of methamphetamine,” said Officer Roberto Gomez of the CHP.

According to Gomez, the discovered drugs are worth about $3.4 million.

The suspect was described as a 47-year-old man.
