UKIAH, CA (August 10, 2021) — A 14-year-old girl died and two other teens were hurt in a pursuit crash on Gobbi Street on Saturday, August 7.
According to the California Highway Patrol, the crash occurred at about 1:30 a.m. Saturday. They said a 15-year-old driver ran a red light at Gobbi Street and South State Street.
