San Bernardino County, CA : Man arrested on suspicion of crashing SUV into Sheriff’s vehicles in Highland on Tuesday, 28th April, 2020
San Bernardino, California
A San Bernardino man was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon against law enforcement after the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department said he hit three patrol vehicles and struck a groundskeeper at an apartment complex while evading deputies in a silver Ford SUV.
The Sheriff’s Department in a statement said deputies from its Highland station responded to reports of gunshots at the Mountain Breeze Villa Apartments complex on the 25000 block of Baseline Street.
“Several patrol units and the sheriff’s helicopter were dispatched to the location,” the statement said. “Upon arriving, the helicopter observer saw a silver Ford SUV driving at a high rate of speed through the parking lot in the complex.”
The man inside the SUV drove through the parking lot, and onto the pedestrian courtyard area in order to avoid deputies, authorities said. He hit an apartment complex groundskeeper while avoiding the deputies.
That groundskeeper was treated for minor injuries and released.
