All told, the suspect allegedly rammed into two cars during the high speed chase that at times surpassed of 80 miles per hour, KTLA 5 reported. In the end it was the suspect allegedly crashing head on into a red car at 60 miles per hour that put an effective end to the chase, TMZ reported. The suspect allegedly continued to resist arrest, however, and police were forced to use non-lethal means to break the window and retrieve the suspect for the arrest, according to the outlet.

The suspect had blood on his face from the experience, KTLA 5 reported. The two drivers he allegedly hit did not sustain serious injuries and could walk away from their vehicles, TMZ reported. The status of both the suspect and the dog is unknown at this time, according to KTLA 5.
