Oakdale Man Identified As Injured Driver In High Speed Chase

Jamestown, Ca -- The individual who suffered major injuries following a high speed chase in Tuolumne County early this morning has been identified as 19-year-old Ty Daniel Miranda of Oakdale.

“We have found out that he is still in critical condition,” says CHP Officer Tom Wills. “It is hour by hour on whether or not he is going to succumb to his injuries, but right now he is still in intensive care.”

A Sheriff's Deputy spotted the suspect pulling out of Chip's Chevron around 1am in what came up as a stolen vehicle. A chase then ensued. After hitting speeds of over 100 mph, the vehicle overturned on Hwy 120 near O'byrnes Ferry Rd., and the driver was ejected.
