News summary

A Sonoma County Sheriff's deputy was pursuing two suspected street racers on Santa Rosa Avenue with emergency lights on when a white Ford Focus pulled out of a Friedman’s Home Improvement parking lot directly in front of the patrol vehicle. Despite the deputy's attempt to swerve left and avoid the collision, the patrol car struck the front left side of the Ford Focus. The driver of the Ford, a man in his late 70s or early 80s, was hospitalized with major injuries, while the deputy and the K-9 police dog in the patrol car sustained minor injuries.
