Chicago police officers injured in crash in Chatham

Tribune:
Two Chicago police officers were hospitalized Monday evening after the squad car they were driving struck a utility pole in the Chatham neighborhood on the South Side, police said.

The accident at about 10:30 p.m. 300 block of East 79th Street involved two officers from the Gresham district, said Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Hector Alfaro.

They were responding to a call when they lost control of their squad car and struck a pole, Alfaro said. No pedestrians were injured, he said.
The injuries to the officers were non-life threatening. So we should expect that they'll be alright.
