Stolen vehicle pursuit ends after PIT maneuver
The pursuit of a stolen vehicle ended in Brentwood on Friday morning after officers conducted a PIT maneuver.
LOS ANGELES - A woman in a suspected stolen vehicle was taken into custody Friday morning after leading officers on a pursuit that ended in a crash with an LAPD patrol SUV in West Los Angeles.
The female driver in a black BMW drove through Brentwood on surface streets as she was followed by multiple LAPD patrol vehicles. One of the officers executed a PIT maneuver which forced the suspect's car to turn around in the other direction, into oncoming traffic.
That's when the suspect crashed head-on with an LAPD vehicle and drove off the road and onto the sidewalk before coming to a stop in the area of Montana and Bringham avenues.

The barefoot driver got out of the BMW and was seen yelling at police officers before they approached her and took her into custody.
