Spike Strips Used to Halt Truck Chase in Coronado Early Saturday Morning

— Multiple law enforcement agencies helped to locate and arrest a man who led them on a vehicle chase early Saturday morning that required police to use spike strips to stop the pursuit.

The incident started around midnight when a sheriff’s reserve lieutenant tried to stop a Toyota truck at 13th Street and Cypress Avenue in Imperial Beach for not having a front license plate, said Sgt. Marilu Marcq.

The driver did not stop and led authorities on a pursuit into Coronado, where Coronado police placed spike strips at the intersection of Silver Strand and Glorietta Bay, deflating the truck’s tires.
