    GARDEN GROVE — A 28-year-old suspected car thief was taken into custody after a pursuit Sunday that damaged a pair of police vehicles.

    When police tried to stop the vehicle, the suspect immediately drove away, leading to a pursuit through several cities, according to the GGPD. The driver intentionally rammed two police vehicles before finally stopping on the Riverside (91) Freeway east of Imperial Highway in Anaheim.

    A police armored vehicle was used to prevent the man vehicle from fleeing again and after several unsuccessful attempts to make the man exit the SUV, a K9 unit was used.

    The suspect, a Santa Ana resident, was then taken into custody and transported to a local hospital for treatment of injuries acquired during his arrest. He was then to be booked into Orange County Jail.
