Stolen-vehicle suspect leads police on chase through East LA
Metro Gold Line trains were stopped Tuesday night after a suspect drove a possible stolen truck into an underground train tunnel.

LOS ANGELES, California -- A wild police chase interrupted subway service Tuesday night when a suspect drove a possible stolen truck into an underground train tunnel.



He was taken into custody, authorities said, but police are still looking for a female passenger and were sending canine units into the tunnel to help with the search.



A robbery suspect T-boned a taxi in Boyle Heights while leading police on a wild chase through East L.A.


Before ending up on the tracks, the man led police on a wild high-speed chase through East L.A., sometimes driving on the wrong side of the road and even onto sidewalks.



He nearly hit at least one pedestrian and T-boned a taxi before driving into the underground Metro tunnel in Boyle Heights.



The investigation is ongoing.
