A pursuit through Monterey Park ended Monday morning with a crash involving a police car and the driver officers were pursuing, police said.
Just before 9 a.m. officers with the Monterey Park Police Department tried to pull the car over for a traffic violation. The short pursuit ended on the westbound 60 Freeway near the 710 transition when the two cars crashed, according to Monterey Park police.
