A #pursuit driver was in custody following a chase across the Los Angeles area Thursday night. At least three police vehicles with lights flashing were following closely behind the pursuit driver. The car was making quick pace, appearing to speed as it weaved through sparse traffic on the southbound 405. In the area of Ainsworth Street and Laconia Boulevard, a group of about six pedestrians ran into the street toward the pursuit vehicle, causing the driver to stop. Multiple vehicles were also parked in the center turn lane in the area. The pursuit driver exited his vehicle with his hands up and lay prone on the ground. Authorities could not immediately confirm what the driver was originally wanted on suspicion of, and no further details were available.

WASHINGTON, DC – Another innocent child caught in the crossfire.

A 9-year-old girl on an evening walk with a family member in Southeast D.C. was shot and wounded Dec. 14, police said.

During a press conference after the shooting, D.C. Police Chief Peter Newsham said the little girl was walking with her family in the street when shots were fired nearby.

“It’s just horrible to think that a 9-year-old — out here with her family member — getting struck by a stray bullet. Hopefully she’ll make a full recovery. There are no words for the sense of loss that our city will feel when they hear of this heartbreaking tragedy.

“We cannot tolerate senseless gun violence, and we must continue to come together to have the tough conversation about what we must do to eradicate it.”

The girl was shot near the intersection of 18th and T streets Southeast while she was walking with a family member. She has been taken to a hospital with non life-threatening injuries, according to the Metropolitan Police Department.

According to police, the little girl is conscious and breathing and is being treated at an area hospital for nonlife-threatening injuries.

PORTLAND, OR – On one hand, Portland residents are getting what they asked for, or voted for, in ultra-liberal politicians and handcuffed police officers. On the other hand, one can’t help but feel bad for residents who don’t agree with the Black Lives Matter and Antifa narratives, and just want to run their businesses and live their lives. The owner of a restaurant on Sandy Boulevard who has been publicly critical of Antifa’s mass vandalism had his business burned down shortly after making the comments. Now investigators are saying the fire was an arson attack. Portland Fire and Rescue officials are looking to question a person seen in surveillance footage apparently setting fire to a local restaurant. (Read more.)

Hey Joe Biden - can you do us a favor? Let this arsonist know that Antifa is just an "idea"? Make sure to also tell the business owner who just lost his restaurant.

This can’t be real. 👻
