High-speed I-80 chase ends in crash, one suspect shot

About 5:50 a.m., police spotted the suspect vehicle and a pursuit began, winding throughout the city. Speeds topped 100 mph when the car, containing two suspects, fled west on Interstate 80.

Utah Highway Patrol troopers joined the pursuit, and attempts were made to spike the vehicle's tires — SLCPD would not say whether those efforts were successful. The suspects attempted to continue their escape until crashing into a tree at a Lake Point residence about 6:15 a.m.
