A high speed pursuit of an Aston Martin in Boyle Heights early Friday ended with the driver dead, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Deputies were chasing the driver in the silver sports car at around 3:14 a.m.
The driver struck a pole just minutes after at the intersection of Soto Street and Washington Boulevard.
He tried to run off but was quickly caught by officers. As he was being taken into custody, he lost consciousness.
Despite efforts to revive him, he died at the scene.
It was not clear if the driver died due to a medical issue or due to the crash.
