HARTFORD, Conn. — Seven Waterbury officers were injured Sunday when a wanted woman drove into their police cars during a wild chase before crashing in Monroe, police said.
The officers were treated at the hospital and discharged but are not able to work, Chief Fernando Spagnolo said Monday. Their injuries include bruises, and neck and back sprains, he said.
Hannah Casperson, 25, was placed under arrest and taken to St. Vincent’s Medical Center in Bridgeport to be treated for more serious injuries, although they are not life-threatening. Spagnolo said Casperson broke her femur and dislocated her hip when she flipped the Hummer she had been driving.
