CEDAR RAPIDS (AP) ? A 24-year-old Marion man faces several charges following a collision with a patrol car being driven by a sheriff?s deputy in northeast Cedar Rapids neighborhood.
The Linn County Sheriff?s Office says in a news release that the accident occurred around 4:50 p.m. on East Post Road. The release says a southbound vehicle driven by D?Andre Hicks went out of control and ran into the northbound cruiser being driven by Deputy Chad Watkinson.
The release says Hicks drove away, with Watkinson and two other officers in pursuit. Hicks was captured a few blocks away when he stopped his car and tried to flee on foot.
Hicks? attorney didn?t immediately return a call from The Associated Press today seeking comment on the allegations.
