NYPD - March 28, 2007

A police chase in the Bronx ended with a mangled mess of police cruisers, several injured officers and an arrest on Wednesday.

Three NYPD police cruisers crashed into each other on the Bronx River Expressway at 177th Street after chasing a suspect who allegedly stole the car around 9 a.m. in the Bronx.

Some police officers suffered  injuries as a result of a crash that left three police cruisers snarled end-to-end on the parkway.

The northbound lanes of the Bronx River Parkway were temporarily closed as emergency personel clear the accident scene. Chopper 4 shot video of the scene, showing traffic at a standstill.
