ORANGE, Calif. (KABC) — A police chase came to a crashing end in Orange overnight, and it appeared to be a deadly incident.
The California Highway Patrol says officers were chasing a car around 3 a.m. but the pursuit did not last long. The car crashed near La Veta Avenue and Batavia Street.
Video from the scene shows a white sedan split in two, with one part wrapped around a pole.
Two people in that car were injured, according to the CHP, but footage from the scene shows firefighters covering what appears to be a body.
It’s unclear what prompted the chase.
