ATLANTA (AP) — Authorities say two people including a child died after a police chase ended in a crash in southwest Atlanta.
Atlanta police Lukasz Sadjak told local news media that the crash occurred Sunday morning after College Park officers chased a black Suburban sports utility vehicle they believed was stolen. Sadjak says the SUV hit another vehicle and then overturned in a residential near Westview Cemetery.
Sadjak says a 76-year-old woman and 12-year-old boy died at the scene. Names of the victims have not been released. Police say the person who caused the crash ran from the scene.
