High speed LA police chase ends in huge fireball after stolen Dodge crashes into truck and sends both careening into GAS STATION

Shocking surveillance video showed the moment a violent crash at the end of a high-speed police chase in the Los Angeles area exploded into a massive fireball.

The chase involved a suspect who was driving a Dodge Charger that they'd stolen on Thanksgiving Day.

Cops say they'd tried to pull over the Charger but he began to drive away, forcing them to pursue.

At around 3pm Friday in Long Beach, the stolen car was fleeing when it ran into a white truck that was making a left turn into an intersection.

The crash was so intense, the vehicles plowed into a gas station and eventually a traffic pole, with the impact causing it to fall down.

Emergency crews were sent to the scene of the incident, where flames were burning over the destroyed Dodge Charge.

The suspect, who has not yet been identified, was taken into custody after going to a local hospital to deal with a fractured ankle.

The driver of the car he crashed into was taken to an intensive care unit after suffering severe injuries.

Officials suspect that the impact of the crash may have left them with a severed limb.

The passenger of the victim was treated for minor injuries at the scene and then released. 

Both vehicles were heavily damaged, with the hood of the stolen car completely wrecked. The crash remains under investigation.
