|
BUFFALO, NY (AP) -- A Buffalo police officer's pepper spray accidentally discharged inside a patrol cruiser, leading to a collision with another car and crash into a home.
Police say the pepper spray belonged to the officer in the patrol car's passenger seat. Spokesman Michael DeGeorge says it went off by itself around midnight Tuesday.
Both officers were treated and released from Erie County Medical Center. Two people in the other car were taken to hospitals with apparent knee and arm injuries.
The patrol car was heavily damaged.
