A suspect accused of deliberately crashing into an officer was killed during a SWAT situation in San Bernardino County on Wednesday.
A Chino motorcycle officer attempted to pull over the suspect for a traffic violation on the 15800 block of El Prado Road around 9:55 a.m.
Refusing to pull over, police said the suspect deliberately crashed into the officer before speeding away.
The officer was transported to a local hospital with moderate injuries.
With the assistance of Fontana police, detectives were able to track down the suspect at a home in Rialto.
Around 5:30 p.m., the Chino police SWAT team arrived with a search warrant at the residence where the suspect was located.
During the search warrant, the suspect attempted to flee and was confronted by officers.
“The suspect shot at officers and two officers returned fire,” police said.
The suspect was shot and killed at the scene. Images from the scene show a large police presence blocking off roads in the neighborhood.
The events that led up to the shooting remain limited as the deadly incident is under investigation.
The suspect’s identity was not released and no other officers were injured. The motor officer who was hospitalized was treated and later released.
