Two people were hospitalized Wednesday morning after a truck flipped during a police chase involving Aurora officers on southbound Interstate 25, police said. Aurora officers responded at about 1:30 a.m. Wednesday to reports of a menacing incident involving a gun near 32nd Avenue and 32nd Place, Aur ora police spokesperson Matthew Longshore said. Longshore said officers spotted the red pickup truck described by the caller who reported the menacing incident going eastbound on Colfax Avenue. He said they tried to follow it onto Interstate 225 but were blocked by a white truck.

The officers pursued the white truck onto southbound Interstate 25 and used a PIT maneuver to stop the truck near Arapahoe Road in Greenwood Village, which caused it to flip on its side, Longshore said. A PIT maneuver is when a police vehicle hits the rear side of a fleeing car, forcing it to turn sideways abruptly. The goal is to make the driver lose control of the vehicle and stop. Officers recovered a gun from the scene of the crash, he said. Paramedics took a man and woman inside the truck to the hospital with unknown injuries. Neither has been publicly identified. As of 11:15 a.m. Wednesday, the woman had been released from the hospital and was being interviewed by investigators. The man remained hospitalized.
