MILWAUKEE (AP) — A police pursuit has ended with a deadly crash in Milwaukee.

Authorities say a 19-year-old man was killed about 1 a.m. Thursday when a driver being chased by police ran a flashing red light and struck the victim’s vehicle.

Police say they were pursuing the man because he was driving recklessly in a stolen vehicle. The fatal crash follows a police pursuit on Tuesday night that left six people injured, including two young boys and a police officer.
