Stolen Car Rams 17 Cars

Five of which were CPD squad cars:

• As several police officers responded to the stabbing, a motorist driving a stolen car tried to drive past the scene but became blocked in, according to [police].

  In an attempt to get out, the motorist smashed 12-13 vehicles -- five of which were police squad cars. The others were parked on the street, the officer said.

  Police tried to stop the car but the motorist "floored it," pushing the squad cars out of the way and driving onto the sidewalk. One officer had to jump out of the way causing that officer to suffer a wrenched back...

At least two kids were reportedly in the back seat, so the decision not to shoot at the occupants was definitely the right call.

Best wishes to the injured PO for a speedy recovery.
