The Camaro then ran off the roadway and came to an uncontrollable stop. Three teen occupants then exited the Camaro.

The driver of the BMW was transported to NEGA Medical Center in Gainesville with serious injuries.

Original Story:

Details are limited, but actions and results are plentiful from an apparent pursuit by law enforcement following a speeding motor vehicle Sunday evening.

Several social media posts Sunday night reported that the city of Gainesville's Green Street was blocked after 6:00 p.m. following the pursuit of a late-model, black Chevrolet Camaro, where images on several locations showed a wrecked black Camaro on the greenway area in front of the United States Postal Service (USPS) building on Green Street. Numerous Georgia State Patrol and some Hall County Sheriff's Office and city of Gainesville Police Department vehicles were seen blocking off the area of Green Street, inside the areas of E.E. Butler Parkway and past Thompson Bridge Road Sunday night.

The Hall County Sheriff's Office social media page reported that Green Street had been reopened after 9:30 p.m. Sunday, with few further details behind the roadway's closure. Requests from AccessWDUN reaching out to Gainesville Police for comment were directed to Georgia State Patrol for comment, where they indicated they were not the initiating agency behind the incident. Requests from AccessWDUN to Georgia State Patrol early Sunday night have not been returned, as of this publication early Monday morning.
