A female driver in a stolen senior transportation van was taken into custody Thursday morning after leading authorities on a high-speed pursuit across the San Fernando Valley.
SkyFOX images from the scene showed the passenger side door open throughout the pursuit. At least one elderly person was inside the van during the chase. He has been identified by family as 93-year-old Abby Javaheri. A 93-year-old man could not catch a break as he got caught in the center of a wild police chase in the San Fernando Valley.
"He went through an ordeal that no one should go through. Being his age, 93, he's battling cancer," said Kambiz Merabi, the victim's father-in-law. "He didn't have his seatbelt on because he just got in the car and the door of the minivan was open."After a brief pursuit, the woman was taken into custody after driving into a dead-end near Tyrone Avenue and Covello Street in Van Nuys.
According to police, the van had a tracking system that was activated when officers spotted the vehicle about 9 a.m. ``The van was transporting to another facility and, for whatever reason, the driver had to do something and the female jumped in and took off in the vehicle," said Officer Ed Lopez of the LAPD's Media Relations Division.that I have read and agree
