Driver fleeing police slams into 2 parked vehicles in Detroit

Three vehicles were heavily damaged Friday morning after a suspect running from police crashed on Detroit's east side. No one was in the vehicles, and only the suspect was hurt.

A high-speed crash that began near Detroit's west side Friday morning ended with a crash on the east side.

The chase started near Telegraph and Joy roads around 4 a.m. after police spotted a vehicle without a license plate that they believed was a murder suspect. The chase ended more than 15 miles away when the suspect crashed into two parked vehicles near Harper and Gratiot. 

"I said, ‘Oh my God, I hope that’s not my truck,'" said the owner of one of the vehicles. "I heard a boom, boom, like an explosion."

The impact of the crash was so strong that a Ford F-150 was pushed about a block away into a field. 

"It was a loud explosion. It sounded like an accident, like a plane crash or something," the owner of the truck said. "I came outside. I saw my truck pushed all the way over there."

The suspect was injured and taken to a hospital. Their condition is unknown.

Police said the suspect is not wanted for murder.
