Domestic-violence suspect, innocent driver dead after series of violent incidents in Ontario

Two people are dead, including an innocent driver, after a series of dangerous incidents involving a

domestic violence suspect in Ontario

this weekend.

New video reveals a terrifying portion of Sunday’s events, as cars swerved to avoid the suspect driving the wrong way into oncoming traffic on the 60 Freeway as he fled police. The armed suspect later crashed into other vehicles on surface streets, killing one woman. The suspect was later killed by officers as he was allegedly attempting to carjack a vehicle.

The suspect was identified as Orlando Montes, 39, of San Bernardino.

The incident started as Montes showed up at his ex-girlfriend’s house Sunday morning, threatening to come inside if she didn’t come out. He was believed to be armed with a handgun.

Police showed up and tried for about 30 minutes to coax him to exit his vehicle and surrender. But he refused and took off, leading them on a chase that eventually resulted in him driving the wrong way on the 60.

Montes’ sister says at one point he called their mother.
