LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — A man accused of shooting several people and chasing them down in a car in Las Vegas has been arrested in Oregon.
The original incident happened back on Oct. 17.
Detectives learned a woman and man were heading home when another vehicle started following them near Lindell Road and Robindale Road.
Someone from that vehicle shot at the victims and they sped up trying to get away. The victim then lost control of the vehicle and crashed. Both the woman and man were ejected from the vehicle.
The other vehicle was unable to stop in time and then crashed into the wrecked vehicle. Several people called 911 to report the traffic crash and saw the occupants of the second vehicle jumping walls and running through yards away from the scene of the crash.
