(Oroville, CA) – Three CHP officers were injured during a chase and arrest in Oroville yesterday morning.

The incident began at around 7:45 when an officer attempted to pull over Joshua Ivarson of Chico for a traffic violation at Ophir Road & Feather River Road. Ivarson sped off crashing into multiple fences and intentionally hitting a patrol vehicle before disabling his own. Ivarson then attempted to flee on foot and fought when officers caught up.

One officer sustained major injuries while another suffered injuries to the hand. As well, a supervisor’s wrist was injured, according to Action News, which reports Ivarson is suspected of being under the influence of drugs at the time.

Ivarson was driving on a suspended license for DUI and had outstanding warrants.
