A man and a woman were detained Sunday night by Whittier police after leading authorities on an hours long vehicle chase that began in Laguna Beach.
The car pursuit came to an end near the intersection of Glengary Avenue and Whittier Boulevard around 6:45 p.m. Sunday.
The suspects exited the sedan and were detained nearby at the Travel Inn, according to Whittier police Lt. Sam Reed and a videographer at the scene.
Although it was initially reported as a kidnapping, Reed said that was not the case.
“There was no kidnapping,” Reed said. The man detained had a $10,000 misdemeanor warrant for his arrest, which had originated in Indiana for allegedly contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
Detectives from Laguna Beach were en route to Whittier to arrest the two people, Reed said.
The relationship of the man and the woman was not disclosed.
