The CHP says seven-year veteran Tom Coleman was pronounced dead at the San Bernardino County intersection where he smashed into a tractor-trailer around 6:30 a.m. Friday.
CHP spokesman Daniel Hesser says the four people in a car Coleman was pursuing for vehicle code violations have been arrested on undisclosed charges.
