No officers were injured in an hourlong car chase Friday night that began in the West Valley and ended in a standoff in north Phoenix, officials said.
Around 9:30 p.m. Friday, Department of Public Safety officers attempted to stop a black Lexus sedan for speeding on the northbound Loop 101, near the Camelback exit in the West Valley. The car sped northbound, reaching speeds of 120 mph, and officers pursued the Lexus until it exited at 35th Avenue.

Joe Paterno has reached out to a prominent Washington criminal defense lawyer to represent him in the Penn State sex abuse case, a source close to the case told NBC News.
J. Sedgwick Sollers, who once represented President George H.W. Bush in the Iran-Contra affair, was contacted by Paterno’s advisers on Thursday. But Sollers has not yet met with Paterno, and a formal retainer agreement has not been signed. By Michael Isikoff
