An Oxnard man suspected of a domestic-violence attack on his girlfriend allegedly led Ventura County authorities on a high-speed chase that ended on a street in Port Hueneme in a hail of gunfire, police said.
The man, whose name was not immediately released, was wounded by officers at the end of the chase before being taken into custody late Monday. No officers were injured, according to an Oxnard police report.
At about 8 p.m., Oxnard officers responded to a report of domestic violence at a home on Roderick Street, a small street off Pacific Coast Highway. The male suspect in the case had left before they arrived, according to the police report. However, officers were told he was armed.
About an hour later, Ventura County sheriff’s deputies came upon the suspect in a car on Highway 33. A chase ensued. During the chase, the suspect allegedly fired at deputies.
