Both vehicles came to a stop, and three men were seen running from the suspect vehicle, two of whom were arrested, according to investigators.

The driver of the struck vehicle suffered serious injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene despite life-saving measures.

One of the suspects was taken to a nearby hospital for unspecified injuries and upon his release will be charged. The other suspect was taken to Central Booking Intake Facility.
