Police Arrest Driver Of Stolen White Pickup Truck

PACOIMA (CBSLA) — Los Angeles police pursued a stolen white 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500 pickup truck. The report first came in at about 4:40 p.m.

The pursuit began in the Pacoima area until the driver led police northbound on I-5 then onto the westbound 118.  The driver has maintained a speed between 50-65 mph and reached a high of 75 mph while traveling on the highways. After exiting the westbound 118, the driver of the stolen pickup continued down southbound Topanga Canyon Boulevard, leading law enforcement through Chatsworth.

Because of the vehicle's size, authorities could not stop the vehicle using a PIT maneuver and must resort to spike strips to stop the vehicle if the driver did not comply.

The pursuit ended in West Hills after the suspect exited the vehicle and surrendered.
