A high speed chase ended abruptly on Aldora Street Sunday evening when the driver of a Honda Accord accelerated after losing control crossing the railroad tracks, ran up an embankment, went airborne, took out the sign at Aldora Methodist Church, hit a power pole six feet off the ground and came to rest on O'Neil Street.
The male driver was unresponsive for a time before being flown to Atlanta Medical Center by an Air Life chopper. A female passenger was cut out of the car by firefighters and transported by ambulance.
The Accord bore a Gwinnett County tag.
Sheriff Brad White identified the driver as Benny Charles Paige, 46, of 162 Morgan Dairy Rd. His condition is unknown. The passenger was identified as Lachonda Miller.
