The crash happened near the West Third Street and North Plaza Avenue intersection shortly after a Dayton police sergeant found a wanted stolen vehicle at about 1:55 a.m. April 2 and had the driver in custody when the two cruisers collided, said Dayton Police Department spokesman James Rider.
Each cruiser crashed into a separate pole after the initial collision and both officers were taken to a local hospital. One officer was treated and released and the second suffered serious but not life-threatening injuries, he said.
The driver of the stolen vehicle was arrested and the stolen vehicle was returned to its owner.
The crash report has not yet been filed.
