DAYTON — A man is in jail after Dayton police said he rammed one of their cruisers late Thursday night and caused them to chase him.
Officers attempted to pull over a driver in the 1600 block of West Stewart Street about 11:30 p.m., according to Montgomery County Regional Dispatch.
The driver rammed a police cruiser and then drove away from the stop, leading officers to chase him, according to a police incident report obtained by News Center 7.
The reason officers stopped the car has not been made clear.

The suspect was taken into custody after officers used a “precision immobilization technique,” according to the incident report. A PIT maneuver occurs when a pursuing vehicle forces a fleeing vehicle to turn sideways abruptly, causing the driver being pursued to lose control and stop.
No officers were injured during the pursuit.
