According to authorities, shots were fired, and the suspect, a man, was injured and taken into custody. There is no clear reason as to why the suspect was running or what the police wanted him for.

The driver reportedly turned onto Revere Street, turned around at a dead end and then proceeded to drive toward the officers. Police say officers then fired shots at the vehicle.

The suspect was taken to the hospital in an ambulance following the incident.
