Two Florida Highway Patrol troopers were hospitalized with injuries after a crash that happened while they were chasing a man up I-75 NB Wednesday afternoon.
FHP says, around 3:17 p.m., troopers attempted to stop that man — who was driving a 2009 BMW SUV — on I-4 near Thonotosassa Road.
They say Wilfredo Cordova Diaz, 35, did not stop, which caused a chase that started on I-4 and then traveled north on I-75.
FHP said the driver entered the grass median just south of Fletcher Avenue in an attempt to make a U-turn.
Troopers also entered the grass median.
However, a K-9 unit, traveling in a Chevy Tahoe, wasn't able to slow down and collided with the rear of another FHP K-9 unit, a Ford Explorer.
