A Huntington Beach man, Timothy Bradford Cole, set a bush on fire, leading to a high-speed police chase that ended in a fatal crash.
The fire spread to a nearby house, but residents managed to extinguish it before police arrived. Cole, in a subsequent pursuit, hit a BMW SUV.
The pursuit, which lasted under a minute, ended tragically with a collision that killed a 25-year-old woman and injured two others in the BMW.
Authorities confirmed that Cole was arrested following the crash and is hospitalized with serious but non-life threatening injuries. Charges are pending.
