A man and a Larimer County deputy were injured Sunday morning in an incident that started with an attempted traffic stop and ended in a police shooting, according to county officials.
The unidentified Larimer County deputy attempted to pull over a driver near Grand Market Avenue and TPC Parkway at 2:32 a.m. Sunday, according to a news release the sheriff’s office.
Sheriff’s officials said the driver fled, leading the deputy on a chase down Colorado 60.
The deputy forced the driver to a stop just east of Interstate 25 on Colorado 60, but the driver began to accelerate toward the deputy, according to the sheriff’s office. That’s when the deputy “fired his service weapon.”
Larimer County sheriff’s officials declined to answer questions about whether the suspect driver was shot or what the bullet hit, but said both the driver and the deputy were taken to hospitals with minor injuries.
An adult passenger in the suspect vehicle was not injured during the incident.
The suspect driver was released from the hospital later Sunday morning and arrested on unspecified charges, according to the sheriff’s office. The deputy was also treated and released.
