Detroit-5:40PM West Side: 2 suspects are dead following a Michigan State Police chase on Detroit’s west side. What started as a routine car stop due to seat belt/tinted window violations, a silver Chrysler 300 lead Michigan State Police on a short pursuit.
MSP troopers attempted to stop the vehicle on the southbound M-39. The suspect vehicle exited Ford Rd and came to a stop. The driver of the vehicle kept his foot on the brake, a sure sign of nefarious intent. The MSP troopers announced over the units loudspeaker for the driver to remove his foot from the brake when the vehicle left the scene at a high rate of speed.
The trooper activated his overheads and siren and followed the suspects vehicle to the area of Ashton & Paul. The suspects vehicle apparently struck a van and careened into a tree at high speed. The vehicle split in half and the occupants were found to be deceased at the scene. The force of the crash was enough to separate the engine from the vehicle and killing the occupants.
Detroit Fire’s Engine 55 was dispatched for a washdown and upon arrival on the scene requested a squad due to trapped occupants & DEMS (DEMS Medic 11). Senior Chief 203 also responded and upon arrival, cancelled Squad 1. Senior Chief 203 requested a Detroit Emergency Medical Services (DEMS) supervisor (Car 1105) to the scene, soon transferring incident command to DEMS.
