Multiple reports indicate that the crash happened just after the car was being pursued in connection with a possible human trafficking case. The car pulled away at a high rate of speed from police vehicles before crashing into the pickup.
A 72-year-old man in the truck -- who was not involved in the chase -- was killed. Two women who were inside of the sedan have been hospitalized.
