The Pomona woman drove a red Nissan Sentra in the middle of cars waiting at a traffic light, she hit two cars to clear her path.
Deputies pursued her and tried two pit maneuvers to stop the Nissan, but the woman did not stop until she rear-ended another vehicle.

Lt. Todd Knight stated that no one knew that the child was in the car.
