A Sheriff’s pursuit in the Spring Valley/Casa de Oro area ended in a crash Friday evening after deputies followed a black Dodge Charger off eastbound SR-94 at Bancroft. As units transitioned onto Campo Road and turned right onto Barcelona Street around 5:02 p.m., a patrol vehicle rear-ended a pickup truck along the turn.
SDSO confirmed the truck was not the suspect vehicle being pursued. The passenger deputy in the patrol car was transported to a hospital; no update on condition was immediately available. The pickup was no longer on scene by the time we arrived to film.
CHP assumed the crash investigation, standard procedure for traffic collisions on public roadways, while Sheriff’s officials continued working the pursuit component. Traffic in the immediate area of Barcelona and Campo experienced intermittent delays as investigators documented the scene.
Officials have not released further details about the suspect vehicle’s direction of travel after the exit or any related arrests. This story will be updated as agencies provide new information.
