Police Chase Ends With Fatal Crash

A man is dead and several others are injured after a police chase in Akron ended with a crash.

The incident began Tuesday evening when a vehicle fled from police on Copley Road.

The chase was eventually called off due to unsafe speeds, but the driver then ran a stop sign at the intersection of Roslyn Avenue and Copley Road and collided with several other vehicles.

The driver, only identified as a 29-year-old man, was killed in the crash and a passenger in his vehicle along with drivers of three other vehicles were taken to the hospital with unknown injuries.

Police say a gun was found inside the suspect's vehicle following the crash.
