At least one suspect was in custody and two others were at-large after a police chase of two separate cars, both allegedly stolen Monday night.
One of the drivers was behind the wheel of a Kia Soul, while the other was reportedly driving a Kia Optima before ditching the car and getting into the backseat of the black Soul.
After weaving through surface streets in downtown L.A., the three, possibly four suspects in the car got onto the northbound 101 Freeway from the 110 Freeway.
Officers with the California Highway Patrol joined the chase just before 11 p.m. as the driver traversed several other SoCal freeways and neighborhoods.

At least three of the suspects jumped out of the car in the area of South Vermont and West 49th and fled on foot.
Aerial footage from Sky5 captured one of the suspects jumping over a fence and then onto a roof as the chase on foot intensified.
Another of the trio who didn’t make it over the fence was taken into custody.
It is unclear at this point if the other suspects have been caught.
