A man who shot at Huntington Beach police officers, hitting one officer in the badge, led police on a high-speed chase through three counties before dying in a fiery crash in the Cajon Pass, authorities said. Just after midnight Friday, Huntington Beach police responded to a domestic violence call at a home near Bushard Street and Yorktown Avenue. The officers followed the man, who made a U-turn, drove toward the officers and started firing at them from his vehicle, Marlatt said. A bullet ricocheted off the police badge worn by one of the officers, who was treated at a hospital and released Friday morning. It’s going to last through the afternoon.”The Huntington Beach Police Department declined to release details about the gunman or the domestic violence call.
