The missing woman’s boyfriend Chris Spotz, a 33-year-old aspiring actor, was identified by Riverside County Sheriff’s officials as the man who led authorities on a chase from Hesperia to Corona in a stolen Toyota Tacoma. He fatally shot himself at the end of the pursuit.
Spotz had just returned to Southern California from Colorado where he was with his fiancée. During Thursday’s chase, police discovered the vehicle had possibly been used in a homicide that had occurred in Los Angeles County.
Cops deployed two spike strips in an effort to slow down the driver during the pursuit, but he evaded them and continued onto the freeway. He then got off of the highway, and when officers attempted a felony traffic stop pulled out his handgun and shot himself, dying at the scene.
Details of that homicide, including when it occurred and the name of the victim or any potential suspects, have not yet been released.
Police now believe Shabani might not be alive and continue to search for her or for a body.
