A speeding car, gunshots, and a person shot all led to a police pursuit down Interstate 65 in Saraland, that ended in Mobile, according to police.
Saraland Police Chief J.C. West said that officers heard shots fired on the interstate around 9 p.m. and then saw a red Dodge Charger speeding along the highway.
Police attempted to stop the vehicle, but it continued fleeing according to the chief.
Saraland officers chased the car until it stopped outside of the University Hospital emergency room in Mobile. That’s when officers determined someone inside the car had been shot, according to authorities.
