Murder Suspect Fleeing Police In Stolen Car Kills Innocent Motorist | San Diego
02.12.2021 | 10:05 PM | SAN DIEGO – On February 12th just after 10:00 p.m., deputies from the Rancho San Diego Sheriff’s Station saw a car driving in the 700 block of Grand Avenue in Spring Valley. The car was being driven with its lights off and a records check of its license plate showed it to be a stolen vehicle. Deputies turned on their lights and siren to stop the car, but the driver sped off. Minutes later, the stolen car collided with two vehicles at the intersection of Jamacha Road and Sweetwater Road after driving through a red light at a high rate of speed. The driver of the stolen car ran away from the crash but was arrested by deputies after a short foot chase. A passenger in the stolen car surrendered to deputies. The first vehicle struck by the stolen car was occupied by a 21-year-old woman. She was critically injured and deputies rendered life-saving aid until relieved by firefighters. She was taken to the hospital where she died. The second vehicle was occupied by two men and a 15-month-old child. All three were taken to local hospitals and are being treated for moderate to serious injuries. All are expected to survive. The driver of the stolen car is a 17-year-old juvenile who was arrested for Gross Vehicular Manslaughter, possession of a stolen vehicle and other charges related to the incident. The passenger in the stolen car is a 16-year-old juvenile who was arrested on charges related to a handgun found in the car. Both juveniles were taken to the hospital for treatment of minor injuries before being booked into Juvenile Hall. Sheriff’s Deputies are conducting the criminal investigation while the California Highway Patrol is investigating the traffic collision. (ADDITIONAL INFORMATION) We were told by a law-enforcement source that the kids in the stolen van are involved in the Chula Vista homicide of a U.S. Navy sailor one week earlier.
