SAN ANTONIO - A high speed car chase ended when the driver lost control and crashed into a fence.

The incident started on Wind Dancer Road at 3 am Tuesday when police got word of a suspected thief driving a gray Tahoe in the neighborhood. When police arrived on the scene to pull over the vehicle, a chase of over 10 minutes ensued with the suspected vehicle reaching speeds in the 90's.

The chase came to a close when the driver side-swiped a parked car and then over-corrected, causing the driver to lose control and and hit a fence near 735 Saddlebrook Drive.

The 37-year-old driver was taken into custody, but a passenger in the vehicle managed to escape. They are still searching for the second suspect.

Hmmm, well the driver doesn't seem to be a decent human being so surely he will rat out his homie and the equally as low of a life passenger will be caught.
