LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WRB) -- Two Shively Police officers are being sued after a police chase turned fatal.

The lawsuit claims wrongful death and that the officers involved in the chase were reckless. It also claims the officers should not have been involved in the chase because of department policy.

This stems from an incident back in July when Shively Police said officers responded to a domestic violence call. The department said two suspects in a stolen vehicle led police on a chase and crashed into a car on Dixie Highway.

Two people died in the crash.
