SAN FRANCISCO — A police chase in San Francisco on Saturday night ended with a fiery crash that is believed to have killed three people, KPIX-TV reported.

"The whole car burst into such intense flames — bang — nobody could survive," witness Neal Taylor told KPIX.
KPIX and KGO-TV report that three people are believed dead.
