SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Several cars were hit and one person was injured following a car chase between a suspect and deputies, according to the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department.
The sheriff's department says the incident began just after 5 p.m. when deputies pulled over a car in the 1400 block of Howe Avenue. Deputies claim to recognize the suspect who was riding in the backseat of the car and had an outstanding no-bail felony warrant. Deputies say the suspect pushed the driver out of the car, jumped into the driver's seat and drove away.
Deputies chased the suspect through the neighborhood where the suspect reportedly hit several cars on the road. One person, who was sitting inside one of those cars, was injured in the chase. Deputies say that person was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment and is expected to be okay.
The sheriff's department says the chase ended when the suspect crashed into a fence near Watt Avenue and the suspect was taken into custody.
