    An Arizona driver was charged with murder after his girlfriend jumped to her death from his car as he sped away from cops while allegedly on drugs, according to a report.

    William Holloway, 36, was arrested Saturday when his vehicle finally broke down after leading cops on a chase around Mount Lemmon, the highest point in Arizona’s 9,000-foot-tall Santa Catalina Mountains, KOLD reported.

    Cops had responded to a domestic violence call early Saturday evening after a woman told officers her boyfriend had taken an illicit drug before driving her up the mountain — and refused to let her out of the moving vehicle, according to the report.

    Holloway then ignored commands to pull over when deputies caught up with them, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department said.
