The motor home involved in a police pursuit Tuesday in the San Fernando Valley that left at least three people hospitalized was purchased using a stolen driver’s license.
The bizarre chain of events traced back to January, when Luz Sanchez’s purse was stoeln in a Granda Hills parking lot. Sanchez said she learned the motorhome was purchase using her stolen identity when she received phone calls from police who thought she was the registered owner of the large RV.
“I thought they had done a lot of damage,” Sanchez said, “And, this goes deeper than just a stolen purse. They stole my identity to commit crimes.”
Sanchez’s driver’s license was used to purchase the motor home which appears to had been sold at Giant RV, an RV dealer in Downey. Since Sanchez reported her stolen items to Simi Valley Police Department months ago, she’s been trying to replace documents and restore her good name.
Sanchez will contact Los Angeles Police Department after the pursuit of the motor home bought with her license ended just a few blocks away from her home in the San Fernando Valley.
The woman behind the wheel was taken into custody after the final crash at a home in the 5100 block of Tampa Avenue in Tarzana. A total of six vehicles were damaged during the pursuit, with at least three people wer hospitalized, including the driver.
