Police chase ends in uptown Dallas
A suspect in a bright yellow sedan led authorities in a chase through the Dallas-Fort Worth area on Thursday.

DALLAS, Texas (KTRK) -- A suspect in a bright yellow car led authorities on a chase from Fort Worth to uptown Dallas on Thursday afternoon.

According to local media reports, the chase began near downtown Fort Worth and then headed onto I-20 toward Dallas. The suspect then turned onto I-45 northbound before exiting the freeway into uptown Dallas.

Just before 1:30 p.m., the female suspect pulled over in the middle of an intersection off the tollway -- seemingly after running over spike strips set by DPS troopers -- and surrendered peacefully to officers.

There did not appear to be anybody else in the car with her. It's not clear why she was fleeing law enforcement officers.
