Police Chase from Houston to Galveston Ends in Fatal Shooting, Broadway Closure

Two high-profile police chases ended dramatically on Wednesday, one spanning from Massachusetts to New Hampshire and another from Houston to Galveston, Texas. In New England, officers pursued a Hyundai Santa Fe believed to be linked to stolen guns, ending with suspects fleeing on foot in Salem, NH, where at least one woman was apprehended near a Target store after a multi-agency response (WHDH). Meanwhile, in Texas, a chase that began near League City concluded in Galveston with a bullet-riddled truck and a heavy police presence, after the suspect crashed at 54th and Broadway; shots were reportedly fired, and the suspect was reportedly down, though the severity of injuries remains unclear (KHOU, FOX26 Houston, Houston Chronicle, ABC13). Both incidents led to significant road closures and ongoing investigations, with authorities urging residents to avoid affected areas.
