One person has died and a police officer remains hospitalized with severe injuries following a pursuit crash in Alhambra early Thursday morning. The officer was pursuing a gray SUV around 3 a.m. when the collision occurred near Valley Boulevard and Edgewood Drive.
Video from the scene shows significant damage to the police SUV, and first responders worked quickly to assist the injured officer. Two other individuals from the SUV were taken to a local hospital in critical condition, while the driver was pronounced dead at the scene. Our thoughts are with the officer, first responders, and all affected during this tragic incident.

Deputy Ezra Stanley
End of Watch: November 19, 1940

Today, we honor Deputy Ezra Stanley, who gave his life in the line of duty 85 years ago. His service, courage, and commitment to protecting our community remain an enduring legacy.
Deputy Stanley was killed when a drunk driver struck the patrol car he and Deputy Carl Pryor were traveling in along Pacific Coast Highway. Despite Deputy Pryor’s efforts, Deputy Stanley could not be freed from the burning vehicle. We remember his sacrifice with deep gratitude and reaffirm that his legacy will never be forgotten. May he rest in peace.
