Driver Traveling Over 100 MPH Flees CHP On 118 Freeway

MOORPARK (CBSLA) — A driver wanted for speeding led CHP officers on a pursuit through the San Fernando Valley Tuesday.

The suspect, described as a woman in a black sedan, was originally wanted for speeding over 100 mph near Spring Road in Moorpark around 12:26 p.m., before jumping onto the 118 Freeway.

The suspect exited the freeway in Chatsworth and was weaving through traffic on the side streets.

The pursuit came to an end in an America's Tire parking lot in Woodland Hills. Views from SKY2 showed the suspect being handcuffed and taken into custody.
