As police approached, a driver in an SUV struck an officer, prompting officers to fire their guns. The SUV then rammed into a CPD squad car before the driver was taken into custody and hospitalized with minor crash-related injuries.
Two guns were recovered from the SUV.
The officer who was hit was hospitalized in good condition. Two other officers were also taken to a local hospital for observation.
Police said a second vehicle, a van, sped away from the scene of the burglary. When officers tried to stop it later in the 7100 block of South Yale Avenue, the driver hit two squad cars before a 30-year-old man inside the van got out and was struck by the vehicle as it fled.

Two more Chicago police officers were hospitalized after the incident with non-life-threatening injuries.
