Three men face charges after they crashed into several North Dakota police cars, nearly killing a deputy.

Three men have been charged after their fleeing car crashed into several police cars and nearly hit an MP during a chase Saturday morning.

The Ward County Sheriff’s Department says the chase began in McLean County around 7:40 a.m. Saturday and then continued along U.S. Route 83 into Ward County and ended in Minot.

At one point during the chase, the fleeing vehicle aimed directly at a Ward County Sheriff’s Deputy who was attempting to install a runaway vehicle’s tire deflation device. The deputy jumped aside and then fired twice at the car.

The fleeing vehicle later collided with three different law enforcement vehicles while continuing through the streets of Minot. The chase finally ended when the fleeing car and the McLean County car broke down and another assistant fired on the car.

At this point, the police arrested the 18-year-old man who was driving, and two of the three passengers fled on foot before being apprehended.
