California deputy hospitalized after man armed with knife hits him with vehicle

Man reportedly struck a deputy with a vehicle, pinning the officer between the car and the one the deputy was searching. The man then allegedly went towards the deputy with a knife.

A man and a San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department deputy were sent to the hospital Saturday night after a shooting in Rancho Cucamonga, authorities told FOX 11.

Deputies say they were searching a car near the intersection of Rochester Avenue and Foothill Boulevard around 7:15 p.m. when another car came and rammed the car and the deputy, pinning the deputy between the two cars.

The driver then got out of the car and allegedly approached the deputy while holding a knife. That is when the suspect was shot.

The suspect was taken to the hospital in unknown condition.
