WEATHERFORD — A high-speed chase that started in Cedar Hill Friday night ended in Weatherford shortly after midnight, leaving the driver dead.
Martin Rochel, 21, of Grand Prairie led police across the Metroplex and into Parker County before crashing into the back of a semi-truck just east of the Interstate 20 406 exit westbound, Weatherford Police Department Cpl. Wendy Field said.
“It was very high speed pursuit,” Field emphasized.
She said the chase was connected with a domestic dispute but didn’t have any more details.
“We worked the accident,” Field said, “but as far as getting involved, it was so fast we never had a chance to catch up before he wrecked out.”
The semi dragged the vehicle several hundred feet before stopping, Field said.
There were no other injuries reported.
