MILWAUKEE (AP) - A police chase in Milwaukee has ended with a fatal crash.

It happened at an intersection early Thursday morning when a van being chased by police ran a red light and collided with a semi, causing the rig to roll over.

Authorities say the driver of the van died. The semi driver was taken to the hospital with injuries.



Fire officials say the intersection could be closed until noon because the semi was leaking fuel.
