| | Comments (1) |

Sources are telling us that a man suspected in the home invasion robbery on Overlook Ridge Road in Diamond Bar that went arwy in early December has been captured.

The man captured after a police pursuit is a suspect in the killing of Panalal Shah.

Here's what Brian Day has so far:

ROWLAND HEIGHTS — Deputies arrested a possible murder suspect after a pursuit that ended with the suspect’s vehicle flipping over, officials said.

The man is being investigated in the murder of 63-year-old Panalal Himatlal Shah at his Diamond Bar home during an apparent home invasion robbery, said Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Lt. John Saleeby.

The chase began shortly before 1:40 p.m. when deputies spotted the suspect’s vehicle, Saleeby said.

After a minute-long chase, the suspect’s vehicle crashed and flipped over in front of 18501 Gale Ave, he said.

The suspect fled on foot, but did not make it far due to his injuries, said Saleeby.

Deputies arrested the man and took him to a hospital for treatment of injuries not believed to be life-threatening, he added.

Saleeby expected the suspect, whose name was not immediately available, would be booked on suspicion of murder Friday.
