LIVE A standoff on a dead-end street in Compton, involving a reckless driving suspect and LASD deputies, is ongoing after 90 minutes.
A reckless driving suspect in a pickup truck on Thursday afternoon led authorities on a meandering chase that resulted in a prolonged standoff on a street in Compton.
The pursuit began when Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies attempted to conduct a traffic stop and the driver refused to pull over, authorities said. The chase was ongoing at 1 p.m. despite at least three PIT maneuvers by deputies, which spun the truck around each time and inadvertently gave the suspect a path to escape in the opposite direction.
The slow-speed chase developed into a barricade situation after the man in the truck drove over a spike strip deployed by a deputy and the suspect made his way onto a dead-end street near the dry Compton Creek riverbed.During the standoff, he was was seen inhaling from a white balloon. It was not clear what substance may have been inside the balloon.A mist of light smoke was visible as authorities fired less-lethal rounds, possibly filled with pepper spray, at the truck.
At one point, the suspect climbed halfway out of the driver-side window and turned in the direction of authorities. What he said to them was unclear.
