This morning authorities reported a vehicle fleeing police in Johns Creek, Georgia collided with another vehicle, killing a married couple, (Kryzysztof Krawczynski, 77, Elzbieta Gurtler-Krawczynski, 78)

Gwinnett County Police spokesman Cpl. Deon Washington said in a statement early Friday morning that the incident started as a pursuit by Johns Creek police that crossed into Gwinnett County.



Washington says the fleeing vehicle “failed to yield” to police late Thursday night and collided with a second vehicle as it approached an intersection on Peachtree Parkway. The driver and passenger of the second vehicle were killed.
