3 burglary suspects arrested after pursuit crash in Beverly Grove

Three burglary suspects were arrested after a pursuit ended in a crash in the Beverly Grove neighborhood of Los Angeles Wednesday. Los Angeles Police Department officers responded to a burglary in the 1600 block of Sunset Plaza Drive in the Hollywood Hills around 5:50 p.m. Police arriving in the area spotted the suspects’ Lexus sedan and attempted to pull them over, but they refused to yield, leading officers on a pursuit. The chase ended when the suspects crashed into an SUV at the intersection of Robertson Boulevard and 3rd Street. Sky5 footage of the aftermath showed the two vehicles came to a stop near a power pole outside a 76 gas station.  The Lexus sedan caught on fire after the crash, as fire crews were seen dousing the vehicle with a chemical agent to extinguish the flames.  The three male suspects fled the scene on foot but were captured a short time later, LAPD said.  One person was transported to the hospital for treatment, however, police did not specify whether that person was a suspect or the innocent driver. No further details, including the suspects’ identities, were released, as the incident remains under investigation.
