Robbery Suspects Fleeing Police Injured in Crash on Shields Street in San Diego

SAN DIEGO, CA (February 26, 2020) –  Two robbery suspects who were fleeing police pursuit crashed and were injured in San Diego early in the morning on Tuesday. The February 25 incident involved multiple collisions before the suspects were apprehended on Shields Street.

Reports say the incident began when officers with San Diego Police responded to a call in which two men were reported to have driven up to a pedestrian and robbed him, taking his smartphone. The alleged robbery occurred in Linda Vista, on Tait Street.

The suspects’ vehicle—described as a Dodge Charger, black in color—was seen by personnel in a police helicopter. The car was driving through lights that were red. The Dodge went onto State Route 163, and was going over 100 miles per hour at times.

The Dodge went onto State Roue 52 eastbound and then to Santo Road, where the Dodge smashed into a police vehicle at a fast speed. The Dodge continued to flee police.

On Shield Street in the area of Tierrasanta, the Dodge smashed into the pole of a traffic signal, and stopped. Responders arrived and transported the two suspects—described as men—to a hospital.

The identities of the suspects have not been reported, including names, ages, and cities of residence. The suspects were arrested.

The officers who had been in the police vehicle that was struck were  not hurt, according to reports. The damage to the police vehicle was severe, however.

The pedestrian who was reported to have been robbed has not been identified.

Investigators are continuing their work on collecting information and evidence.
