One person was killed and 10 were hospitalized in a fiery freeway crash in Boyle Heights that involved several vehicles early Sunday morning, officials said. The wreck was reported at 4:46 a.m. on the transition ramp from the southbound 5 Freeway to the westbound lanes of the 10 Freeway. One car was reported to be engulfed in flames, and Los Angeles County Fire Department crews were called to the scene.

A suspected car thief being chased by police in Los Angeles on Monday night was killed after news cameras broadcasting the chase live on TV showed him jump out of the van on the freeway and get hit by multiple vehicles. Police started the pursuit shortly after 8:30 p.m., when the driver of a suspected stolen van refused to pull over for Officer Drake Madison, the Los Angeles Police Department said.
