A pursuit suspect was taken into custody Friday night after a wild and dangerous chase along two major freeways in Los Angeles County.

Authorities attempted to pull over the pickup truck for speeding and reckless driving around 7:15 p.m. on the northbound 405 Freeway, near Artesia Boulevard in the Cerritos area, according to the California Highway Patrol Officer Elizabeth Kravig.

During the pursuit, the suspect hit multiple vehicles while driving at a high rate of speed on the 405 Freeway and eastbound 210 Freeway.

The chase continued into La Cañada Flintridge, where the suspect crashed into a truck and another vehicle while trying to squeeze between them. The suspect then slammed against the freeway's barrier, sending sparks flying.
