Two people are in custody Monday following a police pursuit and subsequent crash in downtown Los Angeles that left at three people injured, according to authorities and media reports.

Officers were pursuing a “man with gun” when the crash — involving three vehicles — occurred a few minutes later near East 16th and Los Angeles streets, said Officer Norma Eisenman of the Los Angeles Police Department.

Two people inside the suspect’s vehicle were injured as well as a person in the second vehicle. There were no reported injuries in the third vehicle, Eisenman said.

Paramedics dispatched to the location at 11:56 p.m. Saturday rushed at least three people to a hospital, the Los Angeles Fire Department said.

No information was released on their conditions.
