CHANDLER, AZ : 3 badly hurt in 6-car crash tied to police shooting in Chandler on Saturday, 24th July 2021
A police shooting is tied to a six-vehicle collision at a Chandler intersection that has left three people seriously hurt, and seven others injured.
Police say the incident started when officers responded to a trespassing call from a homeowner near Arizona Avenue and Frye Road.
When authorities arrived at the home, they found an RV parked where it shouldn't be. Police say the driver of the RV refused to follow orders, or exit the vehicle and began making "weird movements inside."
Chandler police say officers backed up because they were not sure what was going on and the driver turned the RV towards police and stepped on the gas.
One officer opened fire with his duty weapon at the vehicle and the driver fled at high speed on Frye Road towards Dobson Road where he was involved in a six-vehicle crash.
