How they died

Pursuit

The driver of a van pursued by California Highway Patrol officers died when the other left a road in Orange and burst into flames. The pursuit began about 7:25 p.m. in the parking lot of the CHP office in Santa Ana. The pursuit ended when the 2003 Chevrolet Astro went off the road near a railroad bridge, where it appeared to be stuck. Officers reportedly tried to call out the driver, who would not come out and revved engine until it caught fire. A man was found dead when the fire was put out.
