A 21-year-old man pleaded not guilty Wednesday to charges of leading police on a chase that ended in a crash that killed another motorist in Placentia. Darwin Felipe Bahamon Martinez is charged with gross vehicular manslaughter and evading a police officer causing death, both felonies. Officers on patrol saw the suspect behind the wheel of a dark-colored Jeep Gladiator driving recklessly and nearly colliding with a parked car. The pursuit lasted a few minutes, and the driver slammed into two cars at Bradford and Madison avenues in Placentia, Anderson said. An elderly woman behind the wheel of one of the cars was taken to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, Anderson said.
