A woman riding in a stolen car with three men was shot and killed by a police officer in El Cajon following a high-speed pursuit early Saturday, officials confirmed. Apparently, the chase ended on a dead end road, and when the officer attempted to approach the car, it drove toward him, so he fired into the car, killing the woman in the passenger seat and a dog.
