A Davenport police chase resulted in a fatal car accident, killing an innocent bystander Thursday afternoon.
Police attempted a traffic stop of a vehicle driven by Angel Ochoa, 19, on Northwest Boulevard and initiated a pursuit when he didn’t comply, according to a KWQC interview with Davenport Police Major Jeff Bladel.
The pursuit went westbound on Kimberly Road until, at the road’s intersection with Fairmount Street, Ochoa crossed the center line at a red light, crashing into a car driven by Lori Letts, 48, of Davenport, who was pronounced dead at the scene.
