(WSB Radio) -- Atlanta police are investigating claims by witnesses that the department's response to a deadly crash in the West End was less than urgent.

According to WSB's Richard Sangster, a car being chased by police wrecked just before 1 a.m. Tuesday at the intersection of Fair and Lawton streets in southwest Atlanta.

Two occupants in the car were pronounced dead at the scene, while a third is in critical condition at Grady Hospital.  All three were apparently teenagers.

According to Sangster, the car had been reported stolen Monday afternoon and there are unconfirmed reports that one of the crash victims was wearing an ankle monitor.

Although an Atlanta police supervisor at the scene admits officers were pursuing the suspects, he says the officers, a male and a female, broke off the chase when speeds became too dangerous for the road conditions at that time.

What others are saying

  • Sorry John
    Sorry John, but I just don't think you're smart enough to continue this dialogue. With words like "inbreeding", you show yourself to be nothing but a probable White hater yourself and I've got better things to do but waste it talking to someone like you. But just for the record, John, I'm neither sweet nor sour. I'm just truthful. Buh bye.
  • Sour Susan
    Thanks for the tip about Jonesboro Rd. You were SO right - we had a great time and made a lot of new friends. Too bad you didn't join us - must be awful having to live a life of fear and hate, and never wanting to see anyone that isn't the offspring of your siblings or cousins. Can you say inbreeding? And by the way - I'm quite proud of you. You know a lot of words for a moron.
  • Get Over Yourself John
    Petty, small and close minded person: jewspeak for "I don't agree with you, therefore you have no right to express your opinion, much less to exist".
    Bwahaha--thanks John dear for proving my point about jews and their ilk absolutely perfectly. I couldn't have done a better job of it myself.
    Oh, and as far as the world being a better place without me, don't bet on it John dear. If you are young and White, you are in for one miserable life in this country. But, hey, I don't want to spoil all the surprises for you so just enjoy the ride son.
    Oh, and it's hard to talk some sense into someone who already is the smartest person on this website, at least race wise.
    Oh, by the way, I heard that Jonesboro Road just inside 285 is a great place for Whites to park their cars on a Friday night and go for a leisurely stroll. Take along a girlfriend too, for an extra added bonus. If anyone bothers you John, you just tell 'em that you're an open minded, diversity loving, multicultural kind of a fella.......good luck with that. Heh heh
  • SWEET SUSAN
    You are obviously a waste of oxygen, Susan, and the most 'injectible' of the still lingering, narrow-minded, soon-to-be-extinct people on earth. It is my extreme pleasure to know that I, and others, will only have to experience a small portion of your small life, but that you will be doomed to spending your ENTIRE life with yourself. I totally agree with the others who have tried to talk some sense into you. Unfortunately, you will never be able to think for yourself, and will die the petty, small, and close-minded person that you are. But, on the bright side, the world will be a better place without you. Please hurry.
  • Waaaaaaaah!!!!!!!!
    Well, looks like all you grown up morons who don't have the courage of YOUR convictions whined and complained and had my post removed. No biggie. What a bunch of weenies.

    Hey Mark! Check out the remaining posts. Heh heh.

    Oh, and what do I mean by "news jews"? Well, that ought to be fairly obvious genius. Most of the media in this country is owned by jews. When you look at what we are told and how we are told on a daily basis, any intelligent person can only draw the conclusion that it is the "jews" who control the news coverage in this country and who decide what IS the news and HOW it is presented. Clear enough for ya???
    If you are able to look at anything with an objective mind, check out what you get on any local news coverage and then go on the internet and go to all the major cities and see what is actually going on there. If you are honest with yourself, you will admit that most of what is happening in this country and world today does not make it to the average tv viewer or newspaper reader. The kinds of stories told, the WAY the stories are told, the perspective the stories are given, everything is skewed by the jews in charge to serve their agenda: to promote multiculturalism and diversity at the expense of White people and White culture and society.
    Most vicious black on White crimes NEVER make it to the American public. However, the few isolated White on black crimes, those rare occurrences, become front page headlines where they pound the details day after day to everyone.
    I could go on, but I think I've answered your question. As for your "grow up" remark, get real. I'm 54, and am all grown up and know exactly what is going on. How about you? And from the looks of the other comments, these guys are all grown up too.
  • Response to Terry P
    Yeah, Susan is pretty out there. Anytime there is anything to do with a black male, she gets on the hate rant. Black males (as a group) have their share of issues, but she goes way over the top. I think she has a secret thang for them, myself.
  • "newsjews"
    Seriously? "newsjews", Susan? Exactly what do you mean by that?? Just grow up.
  • Prediction
    Here's a prediction: before the day is out, there will be TV coverage of at least one of the mammas of the dead chirrens crying and insisting that her son was a good boy and that the po-leece kilt him while he was out with his friends. There will be a preacher at her side nodding his head in somber agreement before he steps to the microphone to piously state that this is yet another example of poor treatment of the youth of our city at the hands of the APD. Hilarious.

    Kinda hard to take it very seriously when you don't see any acceptance of responsibility from "the community" that produces these kinds of human waste.
  • saved taxpayers some $$
    prosecuting these thugs and then having them released a few months later only to more than likely do it again. Good riddance.
  • Police Chase
    That's what they get for running & if one of them was wearing a ankle monitor that means he's already a crook. No great lost from this bunch.
  • Works for me!
    Let's see- the cop is OK, two of the tree criminals are hamburger meat and in a cooler at the morgue, and nobody else was hurt. Other than the one teen surviving, things ended about as well as anyone could ask.

    No pity for these scumbags. They were criminals and were putting lots of other people's lives at risk by fleeing the cops. Nice work, APD!
  • Hat trick?
    To bad it could not have been a trifecta!
  • Police response
    Less than urgent ? the hunt ended not to many hours after the car was stolen. Of course the article did not mention what time the car was reported stolen, nor did the witnesses state what their definition of URGENT meant. C'mon AJC, lets get some more facts before the article is printed....or is this an opportunity for you to pick on the APD again??
