One person is confirmed dead and police are chasing a man believed to have caused a massive vehicle pile-up with a stolen truck at the height of drive-time traffic on Lake Otis Boulevard between Northern Lights and Debarr Road. Dozens of police, some with dogs, have fanned out in Airport Heights, pursuing a lone man, described as wearing a red cap and dark jacket.

I come to work on Northern Lights and pass the Lake Otis intersection every single day, and go home the same way. Fortunately, I left a little early and didn't get caught up in the closures. Prayers for the killed driver.

I work at Northern Lights/Benson and New Seward. Traffic was VERY slow, pretty much all the way from before East High, but never stopped and it was before 8. I hope they put the driver away for a long time. And never leave your car running without locking it....even in your own driveway.
