A driver who led officers on a pursuit through Santa Monica and into West Los Angeles Friday morning was taken into custody after crashing head-on into multiple vehicles on the 405 Freeway.

Sky5 was over the pursuit on Santa Monica Boulevard shortly after 5 a.m. where the driver was being followed by officers.

Video showed the driver attempting to ram patrol vehicles and then leaning out the window of the van and shouting at officers.

At one point the van turned around and chased one of the patrol vehicles down the street in an attempt to crash into it.

“This is nuts. She’s chasing a black and white. She’s got a couple of other cars behind her … Look at this. This is just craziness,” Sky5 reporter Mike Case said.

Police have not confirmed if the suspect is male or female but said the driver was wanted for assault with a deadly weapon.

Police attempted several pit maneuvers on the northbound 405 Freeway but were unsuccessful.

The driver then began driving in the wrong direction on the freeway and crashed head-on into another vehicle but that still did not stop the van.

The driver continued on and drove at full speed, and again slammed head-on into multiple vehicles that were stopped on the freeway.

The collision left at least one vehicle badly damaged and caused the van to finally become disabled.

The suspect exited the van, climbed on top of a big rig and sat on the hood until being taken into custody by officers.

At least two officers were injured and hospitalized in unknown condition during the incident.

It was unclear how many motorists were injured in the collisions.

Security video captured two men ransacking a Target in Orange County and escaping with nearly $1,200 worth of merchandise. 

The theft happened at a Target store located on the 13200 block of Jamboree Road in Irvine, according to police.

Surveillance video captured the men entering the store and heading directly to the baby care section.

They began quickly grabbing the merchandise off display shelves. One man stuffed items into a plastic bag while the other grabbed a box and whatever else he could hold.

They were seen sprinting towards the store’s exit, running through a line of other customers who looked on in surprise.

Irvine police said the men escaped with around $1,200 worth of breast pumps. They left the area before officers could arrive.

Detectives said the duo are linked to similar thefts throughout Southern California. Police have released images of the suspects, hoping the public may recognize them.

Anyone who may recognize the pair or has additional information is asked to email mricci@cityofirvine.org.

An American woman living in Mexico faces a potential sentence of life in federal prison after officials say she was pulled over in Indio with almost 100 pounds of fentanyl pills in her car.

Adriana Galindo, who now lives in San Luis Río Colorado, was driving a 2015 black Chevrolet Malibu on the 10 Freeway on Tuesday when she was pulled over by Border Patrol agents conducting vehicle stops, the U.S. Department of Justice said in a news release.

Galindo, 34, was with her young son at the time and told agents that “they were driving to Los Angeles to purchase clothing for a retail store in Mexico and were planning to return home later that day,” the release said.

Galindo told agents they could search her vehicle, and a K-9 unit smelled narcotics, the DOJ said.

Agents found only one blue pill of suspected fentanyl, but once the car was brought back to the station, officials say they found 93.3 pounds of fentanyl pills “in a non-factory compartment located under the car’s front seats.”

The Border Patrol said the narcotics had a street value of more than $1.9 million.

She faces a charge of possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance, and she was expected to make her initial court appearance in Riverside on Thursday afternoon.

The boy’s aunt, a California resident, took custody of him.

If convicted, Galindo faces a minimum of 10 years in federal prison and a maximum sentence of life in prison.
