Two men and a woman were arrested after police say they rammed into a patrol car on Capitol Hill Friday afternoon.
Police say officers witnessed a car make an illegal left turn at 12th Avenue and E Denny Way and realized the driver of the vehicle had a felony warrant out for his arrest.
Police tried to pull the vehicle over, but it sped away. They chased the car until it collided with a vehicle parked near 10th Ave and Denny Way.
The officers pulled in behind the suspects when the driver threw the car into reverse and rammed the patrol car.
The crash left the suspects’ car wedged between the patrol car and another vehicle. Two men and a woman jumped out and fled the scene, leaving a fourth woman in the car. She was arrested.
Police caught up to one of the men about two blocks from the crash scene and arrested the second man with the help of a bystander.
The woman left in the car and the two men were all wanted on warrants and booked into the King County Jail. Police are still searching for the second female suspect.
