The vehicle in question is a white GMC SUV. The suspect led authorities via several freeways including I-10 and I-110.

Multiple occupants were in the vehicle as it fled from authorities, at least one of which was reported to be a gang member.

It is unknown when the incident occurred and when the pursuit began around 10:25 p.m.

Baldwin Park Police Department was the original agency, but they handed it over to CHP shortly after the pursuit began.

The suspects led authorities through Downtown Los Angeles before entering the eastbound 10 Freeway via an on-ramp, driving the wrong way, before making a quick U-turn.

With Sky9 Chopper overhead, multiple suspects could be seen leaning out of the vehicle's sunroof.

At around 10:50 p.m., the suspects had completed a full circle, ending back up in Baldwin Park.

The suspect crashed into an uninvolved vehicle on Bogaert Avenue and Clark Street, where they were promptly surrounded by officers with firearms drawn.

All of the suspects were quickly taken into custody.
