On Sunday night Los Angeles Police Department arrested 29-year-old Sergio Delgado shorty after the pursuit began and is being held on $2-million dollar bail, as reported by the LA Times. The chase began when police officers saw Delgado running several traffic signals and driving on the wrong side of the road leaving the Hollywood Bowl area. Delgado began to drive recklessly in and out of traffic striking down two pedestrians on Hollywood Boulevard. Witness believe the two pedestrians, who have yet to be identified, did not have enough time to react to the oncoming driver. Tragically the pedestrians were pronounced dead at the scene. Their identifications are still unknown but investigators believe they may have two possible names for the man in his 40s and woman in her 30s. Despite the tragic result of the two pedestrians, no other injuries occured and the driver, Delgado, was arrested and taken into custody on suspicion of murder. The deadly pursuit was estimated to have lasted about only a minute around 8:45 pm Sunday night. Hollywood Boulevard and Selma Avenue, between Schrader and North Cahuenga, were closed off until after 6:15 am this morning while police investigated the scene of the crime.
