ANAHEIM — Two men trying to escape Anaheim police were shot by Mexican federal officers early Friday morning after a high-speed chase that stretched from Anaheim to the Mexican border. The chase began just after midnight Friday when an Anaheim police officer tried to pull over a black car near Beach and Ball boulevards, Anaheim police Sgt. Steve Peña said. The driver sped off and lost the officer. Another officer found the car and chased it onto the southbound San Diego (5) freeway at Brookhurst Street, Peña said. “We don’t know why he ran,” Peña said. “He just took off.”
