LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Los Angeles police chased robbery suspects through Hollywood and downtown Los Angeles at high speeds Monday night.

Officers chased the white Chevy Suburban over surface streets, onto the 101 Freeway and then back onto surface streets in Hollywood.

The suspects were wanted for robbery and assault on a police officer.

The chase continued at high speeds and the suspect then returned to the southbound 101 and at times exceeded 100 mph in light freeway traffic.

The suspect transitioned to the southbound 110 with at least three police units keeping up behind him.

Eventually the suspects pulled over in the Florence neighborhood of Los Angeles and three people exited the vehicle, running away on foot into the residential neighborhood.

Officers chased after them and caught at least one of the suspects.

The incident was one of multiple police chases in Los Angeles on Monday, several of them associated with looting in Hollywood, Van Nuys and other areas.
