Scene Summary
On June 1, 2025, a woman reportedly carjacked a vehicle at gunpoint in Sacramento’s Pocket neighborhood. By evening, license plate readers and live cameras picked up the stolen car back in the same area, triggering a police response that included a helicopter. When officers attempted a traffic stop around 9:30 PM, the driver fled.
Scanner Traffic, My Observations, Key Takeaways
I heard the initial carjacking call on the scanner around 6 PM. Later that night, the car was spotted again, and a pursuit began through the city. It ended violently when the driver crashed the vehicle through a fence at 35th Ave and Freeport Blvd, flying into a field on Executive Airport property. The car caught fire, and officers bravely pulled the woman from the wreckage before firefighters arrived to put out the blaze.
I arrived around 10 PM. The scene was taped off. The vehicle was destroyed and still smoking. The engine had been thrown about 25 feet away from the car. Tow trucks removed the remains.
