The car, a white Acura, lost control and hit several parked cars, including the officer’s car. The car also struck a woman in her 20s who was crossing the road near Jefferson Street. The 22-year-old driver of the Acura fled on foot. The officer was not injured and chased the man for eight blocks before losing sight of him behind a building. The driver was located after his mother, the registered owner of the Acura, was contacted by police.
