SAN DIEGO
A driver in a stolen car led San Diego police on a pursuit from Grantville to Mount Helix on Sunday afternoon, hitting a police car at one point, before he was arrested, police said.
The owner of the Kia Stinger called police shortly after 3:30 p.m. to report that his car was stolen from where he parked it on Mission Gorge Place. The owner said he had left the vehicle’s remote key inside the car and someone jumped into the car and drove off, said police Officer John Buttle.
Officers spotted the vehicle and began to chase it. At one point, the man drove across the Severin Drive bridge in La Mesa and headed east up Fuerte Drive, a two-lane road. During the chase, the driver pulled off Fuerte onto some more-narrow roads, driving around 20 mph with police and a police helicopter tracking him.
