Gunman fires wildly during car chase through Baltimore
BALTIMORE (AP) — A gunman fleeing police in a car shot wildly at officers and pedestrians across a swath of Baltimore on Friday as he led cruisers on a desperate chase that looped through streets of the city for at least 20 minutes before he was captured.
Live helicopter shots from WJZ-TV showed a beat-up gray sedan recklessly swerving between cars on narrow streets and residential blocks of West Baltimore with police cruisers traveling behind. The suspect's car sped Friday through traffic lights, narrowly missing pedestrians and clipping at least one vehicle.
Police Commissioner Kevin Davis later said the gunman fired a total of five shots during his chaotic ride.
