ExpandVideo from OnScene TV, a freelance news organization that sometimes works with the Southern California News Group, shows the police black-and-white with front-end damage and a dark-colored Kia sedan with major passenger-side damage.
At least one person, a man, was loaded into an ambulance, the video shows. A Metro Cities dispatch supervisor told City News Service that six people were taken to hospitals, but the extent of their injuries was not known.
Whether the officer was responding to a call, or had lights and siren on at the time of the crash, was not known.
Sunday’s crash was the second injury collision involving a Huntington Beach police vehicle in less than a month.
A man riding an electric scooter was hospitalized on Feb. 26 after he was struck by a police cruiser near Beach and Heil Avenue.
