An Oakley police sergeant, a suspect and the suspect's passenger were injured Saturday when the fleeing suspect collided head-on with a patrol car, the city said. Around 6:10 p.m., Oakley officers spotted a vehicle reported stolen speeding on Jersey Island Road heading toward East Cypress Road. Due to the excessive speed of the suspect's vehicle, police laid down spike strips in an effort to disable it.
Since there were multiple bystanders at the gas station, an officer positioned his vehicle between the station and the fleeing vehicle with his overhead lights flashing and siren blaring. A head-on collision occurred between the suspect's vehicle and the patrol car. Despite being pinned in the car due to the deployment of airbags and the crumpled front end of his cruiser, the officer was able to exit his car and take part in the arrest of the suspect, the city said.
