Chaney's place of death was listed as "residence" and Johnson's was listed as "street." Both causes of death are deferred pending additional investigation.

The deadly spree took place earlier this week after the woman was believed to have attacked her longtime boyfriend following a verbal altercation that took a violent turn at their Woodland Hills address, LAPD Valley Homicide Detectives said.

Detectives recovered a knife "with biological evidence" at the scene, it was revealed.

Johnson then fled from the apartment with her two children in a dark-colored Porsche SUV, according to police, and her car was spotted on the 405 Freeway at about 4:30 AM when witnesses saw an infant and a nine-year-old being pushed out of the moving vehicle.

The 8-month-old child was sadly pronounced dead at the scene and the nine-year-old girl suffered moderate injuries and was transported to a local hospital.

Johnson then headed towards Redondo Beach at speeds over 100 mph when she plowed her car into a tree near the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and Vincent Street.
