A brief police chase ended in a crash that left six people injured and led to two people being detained in Inglewood on Tuesday morning.
According to the Culver City Police Department, officers were attempting to take an armed carjacking suspect into custody in Inglewood when he fled, but not recklessly or at a high speed.
“However, it appears he ran a red light and collided with another vehicle,” Culver City police said, adding that, in addition to the suspect, there was a woman and two children in the vehicle. “The pursuit only lasted a couple of minutes.”
None of the injuries sustained in the crash were considered to be life-threatening, authorities said.

The Los Angeles County Fire Department told KTLA that firefighters arrived at the scene within four minutes of the crash, which occurred around 10:12 a.m. near the intersection of Centinela and La Brea avenues, and were assessing six patients.
Video from the Citizen App shows that debris was left scattered in the intersection in the aftermath of the crash.
One of the cars involved, a white BMW sedan, sustained damage to its front end. Another involved vehicle, a silver Acura SUV, appeared to have ended up on the sidewalk as a result of the collision, according to the Citizen App footage.
A user captured footage of the two people being detained at gunpoint by police. The same user’s footage also showed first responders taking the two injured children from the vehicle and assessing them for injuries.
