Police said the driver fled when officers attempted a traffic stop, which prompted them to “safely immobilize” the vehicle by placing police cars up against it. Police said the tactic was used to “mitigate the risk of harm to the drive, the public and involved officers.”

No injuries were reported, police added.

One person is in custody in relation to the incident, the CPS spokesperson said, and an investigation is ongoing.
