Suspect surrenders in Panorama City area after pursuit in San Fernando Valley

A man in a suspected stolen car led police on a lengthy pursuit through the San Fernando Valley Monday night that included two collisions.

The suspect eventually surrendered to police and taken into custody at about 9:30 p.m. near the intersection of Nordhoff Street and Willis Avenue in the Panorama City area.

The suspect had earlier crashed into another car nearly head-on and then broadsided another one later in the pursuit, but kept going.

It's unknown if the suspect or anyone from either of the vehicles struck by the suspect were injured.

Officers at one point during the pursuit backed off the suspect when the suspect began driving into small streets and residential areas erratically and at times, high speeds.

The driver of a dark-colored pickup truck that began following the pursuit suspect was also taken into custody about a block away from where the suspect surrendered himself.

No further details were immediately known.
