A man who tried to evade police was hospitalized after the vehicle he was driving crashed early Saturday, Dec. 16, authorities said.
The brief chase began just before 4 a.m. Saturday when deputies received a call of a man involved in criminal activity, said Orange County Sheriff’s Department Lt. Steve Gil.
As he fled the scene he wrecked a vehicle he was driving near the intersection of Yorba Linda Boulevard and Imperial Highway, Gil said.
The man was taken to an area hospital, where he was in critical condition.
His identity was not immediately released.
