Woman Killed In Police Chase Was Not Involved With Shooting
A shooting in Aurora Saturday night led to a police chase which ultimately left a woman dead from a violent car accident.
Police responded to a suspected shooting incident at approximately 11 p.m. Saturday. When the arrived at the scene, a red Mercedes-Benz was seen leaving the area and police followed.
A chase ensued until the pursuit ended when the red vehicle struck another car at the intersection of East 13th Ave. and North Pontiac St. The woman driving the other vehicle, who tried to evade the chase, was seriously hurt and died later from her injuries at a local hospital.
The three individuals driving the Mercedes-Benz have yet to be questioned by the police due to the heavy medication they've received since sustaining injuries in the car accident.
Aurora police spokesman Frank Fania said officers responded to a shooting incident at the 1100 block of North Clinton St., where they discovered a woman who had been shot through a basement window. Her injuries were non-life threatening.
"It appears there had been an altercation earlier in the evening, and the suspects had followed a man to the house. They were shooting at him outside the house, and when he went into the house they continued shooting at him. The woman hit was the unintended victim," said Fania.
No names have been released relating to the incident.
