A high speed car chase has come to an end in north Dallas after a truck t-boned the car being chased. Police had been following the car back and forth on 635 in Dallas. Apparently, the driver refused to pull over when he officers tried to pull him over for a traffic infraction.

There is speculation as to the condition of the driver now, who reportedly was in contact with the Dallas constables who were chasing him. He was threatening to kill himself.

Reportedly, there were at least 11 units tailing him. After exiting the freeway, the car pulled out into an intersection and was struck by a truck. It continued to roll for a bit. After it stopped, police swarmed the car. They walked away rather than trying to get the driver from the car leading to speculation that he was either seriously injured or dead. After being removed from the car, the driver was taken to a hospital. His condition is unknown.

The driver of the truck was apparently okay as he was walking around after the accident. However, there has been no official report on his condition either.

The truck struck the car in the driver's side door and smashed it in. The truck seemed to be traveling at a high rate of speed at the time of the collision and it suffered considerable damage. As this is a breaking story, details are sparse.
