<\/p>\nChase ends in shooting, closing SB Interstate 5 in Sacramento<\/p>\n
Part of southbound Interstate 5 is closed in Sacramento Tuesday morning. A chase ended in a shooting, the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office said.<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLIVE FROM KCRA THREE NEWS. WE BEGIN WITH BREAKING NEWS. WE\u2019RE FOLLOWING BREAKING NEWS. IT IS ALONG I-5 IN SACRAMENTO. THE SHERIFF\u2019S OFFICE SAYS THERE WAS A CHASE AND THAT A SUSPECT HAS BEEN SHOT. THIS IS ALL HAPPENING NEAR I-5 AT ARENA BOULEVARD. LET\u2019S GO RIGHT NOW TO MELANIE WINGO WITH MORE ON WHAT SHE\u2019S LEARNED. GOOD MORNING MELANIE. GOOD MORNING. WE\u2019RE ON THE NORTHBOUND SIDE OF INTERSTATE FIVE RIGHT AT THE ARENA BOULEVARD ON RAMP TO THE NORTHBOUND LANES AND JUST ACROSS FROM WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW. WE CAN SEE WHERE ALL OF THIS CAME TO A HEAD IN THE SOUTHBOUND LANES. THE SHERIFF\u2019S OFFICE CONFIRMING FOR US THIS MORNING THAT THIS ALL STARTED AS A CHASE AND ENDED WITH SHOTS BEING FIRED. IN OUR VIEW, WHERE WE ARE STANDING, WE DID SEE A PERSON ON THE ROADWAY UNRESPONSIVE, AND NOW AUTHORITIES ARE PUTTING UP A PARTITION AROUND THAT PERSON\u2019S BODY. SO THIS DOES APPEAR TO BE A FATAL SITUATION. ACCORDING TO THE SACRAMENTO COUNTY SHERIFF\u2019S OFFICE, NO DEPUTIES WERE INJURED ON THE SCENE. RIGHT NOW, WE\u2019RE SEEING ABOUT A DOZEN SHERIFF\u2019S PATROL VEHICLES. WE KNOW THAT CHP ASSISTED WITH SOME OF THIS PURSUIT. THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF WHAT WE WERE HEARING ON POLICE SCANNERS THROUGHOUT THE MORNING, JUST AFTER ABOUT 3:00 THIS MORNING, IS THAT THEY WERE TRYING TO GET THIS PERSON TO STOP. AND AT TIMES, ACCORDING TO CHATTER OVER THE POLICE SCANNERS, IT APPEARED THE SUSPECT MIGHT HAVE HAD A GUN. NOW, WE KNOW THAT THIS ALL SORT OF WENT THROUGH THE SACRAMENTO AIRPORT. THE THE PARKING LOT, AT LEAST SOME OF THE TERMINALS OUT THERE. WE DON\u2019T BELIEVE THAT AT ANY TIME THERE WAS ANY SORT OF SUSPECT ACTIVITY ON THE INSIDE OF THE TERMINAL. BUT ONCE POLICE DID MANAGE TO GET THEIR CHASE BACK OUT ON THE HIGHWAY, IT ENDED RIGHT HERE IN THE SOUTHBOUND LANES AROUND ARENA BOULEVARD. STILL A LOT OF UNKNOWNS AS TO WHY THE SHERIFF\u2019S DEPUTY STARTED PURSUING THIS INDIVIDUAL IN THE FIRST PLACE. WE KNOW THAT A SHERIFF\u2019S SPOKESPERSON IS ON HIS WAY TO THE SCENE. WE\u2019LL BRING YOU UPDATES THROUGHOUT THE MORNING. REPORTING LIVE NEAR ARENA BOULEVARD. MELANIE WINGO KCRA THREE NEWS. MELANIE, THANK YOU. AND MELANIE WAS REFERENCING THE AIRPORT AND THE CONNECTION THERE. AND IF YOU\u2019RE TRAVELING ALONG SOME OF THE LOCAL ROADS AROUND THERE, THEY DO HAVE THIS UP ON THE DIGITAL BOARDS. BRIAN, BECAUSE OF THE IMPACT FOR PEOPLE TRYING TO GET TO THE AIRPORT. SURE. AND WITH SOUTHBOUND I-5 CLOSED, THAT\u2019S GOING TO BE A MAJOR IMPACT, ESPECIALLY HEADING INTO OUR MORNING COMMUTE. SO WE\u2019LL START HERE WITH A PICTURE FROM THE CAMERA AT EL PASO BOULEVARD. WE\u2019RE LOOKING SOUTH AND THIS IS THE INCIDENT RIGHT HERE. WE\u2019RE ALMOST UNDER THE ARENA BOULEVARD OVERCROSSING. NOW, THE OTHER THING YOU NOTICE IS A LOT OF TRAFFIC COMING ACROSS ARENA BOULEVARD THERE, LOOPING AROUND AND THEN GETTING ONTO I-5 SOUTH. THERE YOU\u2019LL SEE CARS PASSING THROUGH THIS AREA RIGHT HERE. AT LEAST THEY WERE A MOMENT AGO. AND BEING ABLE TO GET BACK ONTO THE FREEWAY. BUT THIS IS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF WHERE THIS INVESTIGATION IS HAPPENING. AND SO WITH THAT HAPPENING, YOU CAN SEE HERE, SOUTHBOUND FIVE IS CLOSED, NORTHBOUND IS OPEN. SO IF YOU\u2019RE HEADING OUT TO THE AIRPORT OR ONTO WOODLAN, NO PROBLEMS THERE. IT\u2019S THE SOUTHBOUND SIDE OR THE RETURN FROM THE AIRPORT WHERE YOU\u2019RE GOING TO RUN INTO THAT CLOSURE. THAT\u2019S INDICATED BY PURPLE HERE LEADING UP TO ARENA BOULEVARD. YOU CAN SEE BACK BEHIND EL PASO. THAT\u2019S WHERE TRAFFIC BACKS UP NOW ALL THE WAY BACK TOWARDS THAT AIRPORT BOULEVARD RIGHT THERE, METRO PARKWAY. SO TO GET AROUND ALL OF THIS, YOU ARE IF YOU\u2019RE DIVERTED OFF OF EL PASO, YOU CAN COME DOWN EL CENTRO OVER TO AIRPORT, YOU CAN CUT OVER TO EAST COMMERCE OR TRUXEL ROAD, COME OVER TO AIRPORT BOULEVARD OR ARENA BOULEVARD, EXCUSE ME, AND THEN BACK ONTO THE FREEWAY. OR IF YOU\u2019RE COMING FROM WOODLAN\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
