Two people were killed after a car crash as some suspects attempted to flee from police in South Los Angeles on Friday morning.
The crash took place just before 4:15 a.m. on W. Manchester Avenue, after Los Angeles police tried to make a traffic stop on a vehicle. The car soon fled from the area, eventually crashing into three other cars after running a red light near the intersection of Manchester Avenue and Broadway.
Officers with Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) added that this was not a pursuit and they had initially tried to pull the suspects over since they were speeding.
Two people, a man and woman in their 30s, were pronounced dead at the scene.
Another person suffered minor injuries and wasn’t hospitalized.
Three suspects, all of whom exited the vehicle and tried to flee on foot are now in custody.
