A California kidnapping suspect led Los Angeles police on a dangerous chase that ended in an hours-long rooftop standoff Thursday night.
The driver is seen speeding through red lights and swerving through oncoming traffic. Eventually, the suspect crashes into a stop sign and flees on foot. He jumps over fences and through backyards before becoming surrounded by police on a rooftop in Sylmar.
Watch the video above.
According to a report from KNBC, the standoff lasted several hours before SWAT officers talked the man off the roof. He was taken into custody without force early Friday morning.
Early reports suggest the man was wanted in connection to a kidnapping case.
