HPD Robbery investigators were searching the 5600 block of Selinsky for suspects involved in a series of bank robberies when they spotted Victoria, one of the suspects, driving in the area. When a marked patrol unit attempted to stop Victoria, he headed westbound on Selinsky at a high rate of speed. The suspect lost control of his vehicle after striking a puddle of water and swerved across lanes striking the curb and two trees. Victoria and his passenger were both ejected from the vehicle.

The investigation is continuing.
