OAKLAND — Three people were taken into custody after police and paramedics responded to a vehicle pursuit that ended in an injury crash by Interstate 580 near the Lakeshore Avenue exit Tuesday evening.

Initial reports suggested a chase involving a silver or gray Mercedes Benz that began in East Oakland before heading onto northbound lanes of Interstate 880 and exiting at 23rd Avenue onto city streets, getting into minor crashes with other vehicles along the way.

The Mercedes then got onto westbound Interstate 580 at Fruitvale Avenue before getting off at Lakeshore, where a person inside got out and tried to flee but was struck by an uninvolved non-police vehicle.

Oakland police did not provide additional details on the incident but later said three people were taken into custody.

Guns were recovered inside the Mercedes, and another suspect was apparently detained after trying to flee on foot.
