Media summary: Michael Agustin Reza was killed when he crashed his 1997 Honda Accord into a Dodge Charger at the entrance to Cal State Los Angeles while fleeing the CHP. At around 1 a.m. the CHP had been pursuing Reza for speeding on the westbound 10 Freeway. The Honda exited at Fremont Avenue and continued west on Hellman Avenue. The CHP reportedly pursued the Honda until losing sight of it just east of the 710 Freeway overcrossing. Reza missed a slight curve and struck the Dodge, which was about to make a right turn into a university parking lot. The impact propelled the Dodge about 125 feet backward. The Honda hit a bus stop awning and came to a rest on the sidewalk. Reza got out of his car and collapsed on the lawn by the bus stop and died at the scene. The three people in the Dodge were injured.
