Multiple people injured after Vine City police chase ends in car crash, Atlanta police say

ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - Four people were rushed to the hospital, one badly injured, following a police chase that ended with a crash. Police say it all started with a carjacking.

The chase ended late Wednesday night with a crash at the intersection of Joseph E. Lowery Boulevard and Lena Street in northwest Atlanta’s Vine City neighborhood.

Emergency crews with Atlanta Police and Fire and Rescue responded along with paramedics. The impact of the crash was forceful enough to activate airbags in one of the vehicles.

Police say the car that crashed into another vehicle was stolen at gunpoint. Officials have not released where the crime happened or where the police chase began.

No word yet of any arrests or charges being filed.

Four people were treated at Grady Memorial Hospital, with at least one person listed in critical condition, at last check with police.
