A man who rammed a Fountain police cruiser head-on with a stolen car Friday has been arrested.
Gabino Detorre-Lopez, 23, could face multiple felony charges, including second-degree assault on a peace officer and felony eluding, according to law enforcement.
Two thieves stole two vehicles in Colorado Springs on Friday between 6 and 7 a.m. while the cars were running unattended, Fountain police spokeswoman Lisa Schneider said. Colorado Springs police informed local law enforcement about the thefts.
At about 7:30 a.m. a Fountain police officer spotted one of the vehicles near U.S. 85 and Southmoor Drive and tried to stop the vehicle, which drove into a parking lot after a brief chase. The driver crashed head on into a patrol car in the parking lot, then jumped out and ran into Security Mobile Home Park, Schneider said. Police believed the man had a gun in his hand.
