Dashcam shows two Dayton police cruisers crash into each other and light poles
Two cruisers collided early April 2 while on the way to assist another officer who apprehend a driver in a stolen vehicle in Dayton.
Dash camera footage shows one cruiser crash into a pole and start smoking.
The crash happened near the West Third Street and North Plaza Avenue intersection shortly after a Dayton police sergeant found a wanted stolen vehicle at about 1:55 a.m. and had the driver in custody when the two cruisers collided, said Dayton Police Department spokesman James Rider.
Each cruiser crashed into a separate pole after the initial collision, and both officers were taken to a local hospital. One officer was treated and released and the second suffered serious but not life-threatening injuries, he said.
The driver of the stolen vehicle was arrested, and the stolen vehicle was returned to its owner.
The crash report has not yet been filed.
