How they died

Pursuit

A sergeant with the state patrol tried to stop a blue 2004 Chrysler Pacifica for a red light violation at 1:11 a.m. The car didn't stop for the patrol car's emergency lights and siren, and a pursuit began. The car ran a red light at the intersection of St. Clair Avenue and East 110th Street at a high rate of speed, and the sergeant reportedly discontinued the pursuit due to the unsafe conditions. The sergeant shut off his emergency lights and siren after clearing the intersection and continued east on St. Clair Avenue. At 1:13 a.m., the sergeant saw a crowd at the Gas USA. The car that was involved in the pursuit had crashed against a utility pole. The driver, Antonio Whitley, 30, and Ashley Martin, 25, was killed, and another passenger was injured.
