Summary

A 27-year-old Oakland man faces nearly seven years in prison after a high-speed, chaotic chase that began on the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge and ended with him crashing into a van, fleeing into the Moscone Center, and hiding in a locked office—while also carjacking the van’s driver and injuring bystanders. He pleaded guilty to carjacking and fleeing police, receiving a five-year sentence for the former and an additional 18 months for the latter, to be served consecutively. Prosecutors say the sentence reflects the gravity of his actions, including a 100+ mph crash that caused a three-car pileup and left a victim with injuries. He’s next in court for a restitution hearing to determine financial reparations for the damage and harm he caused.
