Authorities say the man hit a police cruiser and another vehicle during a chase with police before crashing into a utility pole on Riley and knocking out power to some area residents and businesses. The man was taken into custody.
The 45-year-old Holland Township woman who was stabbed was hospitalized and is currently in stable condition, authorities said Thursday evening.
The man inflicted non-life threatening injuries on himself after the police chase, the sheriff’s office said. His identity will be released when he is formally charged.
