A suspect stole a police car with a female officer inside overnight and then caused a series of crashes that culminated in his arrest in downtown Los Angeles, authorities said. The incident began around 3:30 a.m. Sunday when an officer assigned to a security detail was approached by the unidentified suspect at 12th and Figueroa streets. That's when the suspect managed to enter the officer's patrol car, and sped off, with the officer inside.
She was transported to a hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries and was listed as stable. The suspect also collided with two vans at 8th and Figueroa streets, then into a pole at 7th Street, which is when he fled on foot, but was apprehended soon after. He was examined by first responders and was cleared for transport to the police station for booking. Authorities said three people inside the van were treated at the scene.
