Suspect drives wrong way on I-580 during chase

SAN LEANDRO, Calif.

The CHP says the driver got off at the Grand Avenue on-ramp into a neighborhood and that's when the CHP lost him. He apparently dumped the car on Broadmoor Boulevard and now police are searching for him in the area of Broadmoor and Durant.

There have been no injuries reported related to the chase.
