Huber Heights, Ohio — On February 27, 2024, just before 12:15 p.m., a car rammed an unmarked police vehicle during an investigation near Gettysburg and Kammer avenues in Dayton. Police did not say what type of investigation was underway nor what led to the investigation. The vehicle then fled, which prompted a pursuit for felonious assault on a police officer. The pursuit ended on I-70 westbound at the exit for 201/Brandt Pike in Huber Heights. A cruiser can be seen hitting the left rear side of the car, causing it to spin and come to a stop near the shoulder of the highway. A 28-year-old man was arrested by Dayton police on I-70 in Huber Heights and was booked into the Montgomery County Jail on suspicion of felonious assault, failure to comply with an order or signal of a police officer, tampering with evidence and drug possession.
