I just tuned in, but according to the commentator, it’s been going on for at least 30 minutes. The police have just broken off the chase in the interest of public safety, and helicopters are instead taking up tracking the suspect vehicle. Also according to the commentator, the fact that it’s a property crime and no injury or death has as yet been ascertained, if apprehended, the suspect will most likely be checked for outstanding wants or warrants. If none are found, he or she will be cited, given a notice to appear in court, and then will be released from custody, all of this taking place within a few hours of been being arrested.

Los Angeles, California June 11, 2020. — A former staff attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Southern California is suing the organization for allegedly subjecting her to racism and wrongfully firing her in February for speaking out against her treatment, labeling her as an “angry” woman.
“This lawsuit is a matter of urgent public concern in light of the recent murder of George Floyd and the resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement,” Sarah O. Clifton’s lawsuit states.
A spokesperson for the ACLU said they are aware of the suit, filed Tuesday in Los Angeles Superior Court, but “do not comment on personnel matters.”
Clifton is seeking unspecified damages for alleged wrongful discharge, retaliation, hostile work environment harassment, and failure to prevent harassment.
