Overview
- Police say a Jeep driver struck a marked squad car during a traffic stop near the 4800 block of North Milwaukee Avenue just before 4:10 p.m. on Monday.
- The driver allegedly fired at least one round that hit a squad car, then crashed into a second marked vehicle in the 4500 block of North Meade Avenue.
- The suspect fled on foot and was taken into custody a short time later in the 6100 block of West Eastwood Avenue.
- Officers did not return fire, a firearm was recovered from the Jeep, and no injuries were reported, according to CPD.
- Most reports state the suspect fired at police, though one article carried contradictory phrasing about an officer firing; Area Five detectives are investigating and charges are pending.
