Two Titusville police officers were injured after their patrol vehicles collided while responding to a “disturbance call” on Monday morning, according to a news release.
The Titusville Police Department said the officers were responding to the call in the area of Hopkins near Acorn Avenue around 8:55 a.m. when the crash happened.
According to the release, the two officers – who were in separate marked patrol cars –were responding to 911 calls about a “woman brandishing a handgun at another person” at Award Trophy located at 4424 South Hopkins Ave.
Police said that as they neared the location, they received information that one of the suspects left the scene.
“The preliminary investigation reveals that the closest officer to the call made a sudden U-turn to pursue the suspect vehicle, when the patrol car behind her struck the side of her car and then struck some trees along the roadway,” police said in the release.
