Shirtless Burglary Suspect In U-Haul Leads Authorities On Multi-Freeway Chase

ANAHEIM (CBSLA.com) — A shirtless burglary suspect in a U-Haul truck Wednesday led authorities on a multi-freeway chase through Riverside and Orange counties.

California Highway Patrol officers followed the truck along the 91, 55 and 5 freeways, as well as surface streets, for more than 30 minutes.

The suspect may have stolen the truck — which was traveling at speeds of up to 90 miles per hour — from a U-Haul facility in Riverside.

At one point, he exited the 5 Freeway and nearly lost control of the vehicle after taking a turn too sharply.

He was taken into custody around 11 p.m. on State College Boulevard under Interstate 5.

No other details were immediately available.
