The pursuit covered 46 miles and lasted two hours before coming to an end in Milo. A deputy was traveling north on Interstate 5 just north of Glendale when he ran a records check on the license plate of a black Toyota Celica, which was being operated by 47-year-old Jeffrey Jay Fahey. The California plates returned as belonging to an Isuzu SUV. The deputy exited the freeway near milepost 86 and got back on the highway in an effort to stop the Celica. Fahey pulled off the freeway at milepost 88 and briefly stopped, reportedly shrugging his shoulders while looking back at the deputy, according to court documents.
