Police: Burglary suspect rams police car, injures officer
CAMAS, Wash. – Police arrested a burglary suspect who they said rammed a police car and injured an officer during his escape Monday morning.
According to Sgt. Scot Boyles, police responded to a call reporting an interrupted burglary in the 1600 block of NW 27th Avenue in Camas just before 10:30 a.m.
The suspect, later identified as 24-year-old Bradley Eric Jensen, was in his vehicle when the first officer arrived, Boyles said. The officer broke Jensen's window and pointed his Taser at him after Jensen did not obey the officer’s commands.
Jensen started his car as a second officer arrived. Boyles said he rammed one of the police cars as he drove away.
One officer suffered a hand injury, Boyles said.
Jensen drove his car for about one block, where he crashed and ran away on foot. Police searched the neighborhood, but could not find him.
Two hours later, someone in the neighborhood called 9-1-1 to report that Jensen was hiding in her backyard. Jensen tried to run when a K-9 unit arrived, but the police dog bit him and police took him into custody.
He was taken to the Clark County Jail where he faces charges of robbery, burglary, theft, assault, resisting arrest, hit and run and possession of stolen property.
Police asked the nearby Dorothy Fox Elementary to go into lockdown at around 10:30 a.m. Students were able to go from class to class inside the building, Boyles said. The lockdown was lifted at around 12 p.m.
Good puppy! Now get that dog an antibiotic shot and a milk bone.
"but the police dog bit him and police took him into custody."

I hope the K-9 has all of his shots up to date, so he will not get sick..
Some of the criminals just seem to get worse.
should have tased him when he had the chance
 @Phuzz Ya had he half the comments would be calling him the same as PDX cops. They just can't seem to win regardless of what they do...
 @FreedomRocks Except, it seems a majority of people who post on here would actually be willing to call for the suspects execution. Personally, I say, shoot bean bags at him at 5 feet away, or nail his car with a paintball gun so he stands out in a crowd.....I swear, these crooks are just getting more stupid.
 @pdxd  @FreedomRocks Yes, I agree they are. Nobody puts on masks to rob banks anymore.. and then they wonder how they got caught.
