The man exited at Poplar Avenue, where he drove recklessly and evaded police. The stolen vehicle, a white Ford F-250 was located near Central Park. The man drove through the park and sped away from officers who pursued him as he drove through downtown and north on San Mateo Drive. Officers lost sight of him as he drove into Burlingame. The vehicle was spotted on Carmelita Drive, and the man, identified as Jose Antunez, 33, of Oakland, was spotted less than two blocks away, according to police.
