Pursuit Suspect Killed In Shootout On I-10
CATHEDRAL CITY (CBS) ― A pickup truck driver who ran a stop sign led police on a 48-mile, high-speed desert chase before he was killed during a rolling Interstate 10 shootout near Chiriaco Summit.
A Cathedral City police officer tried to stop the pickup Thursday, but the driver sped away, reaching speeds of up to 120 mph as the California Highway Patrol joined the desert chase 130 miles east of Los Angeles.
CHP Officer Tami Low says 32-year-old Johnnie Robert Lopez "opened the rear-window slider and starting shooting out the back of the truck."
Three officers involved in the pursuit fired back and the wounded Joshua Tree man lost control of the pickup. He was found dead in the truck.

Read the story. the guy opened fire first then the cops returned fire. you run from the law or shoot at a cop and you took your own life into your own hands...
dont roll the dice when your life is at stake. Im only sad that some SOB will try to sue the city for wrongfull death cause of this maniac.
Good that Justice was served.... Now I have a question for the CHP WTF were they thinking driving at high rate of speeds shooting at each other ????
Kind of reckless IMO :idea: :idea:
Thinning the gene pool...
More idiots should own guns
Sounds like one less guy on the water this weekend
