LOS ANGELES - A driver led California Highway Patrol officers on a pursuit from Riverside to Santa Monica. 

The suspect was allegedly wanted for driving a stolen vehicle.

The pursuit originated in Riverside; the suspect then led authorities on the westbound 60 through Orange County to downtown LA. The driver then got on the westbound lanes of the 10 Freeway in West LA and headed towards Santa Monica. The suspect then continued driving on PCH as the 10 Freeway ended. 

It's believed CHP backed off on the driver due to safety concerns. It is unclear if the driver was arrested.
