Four Capital Region police officers were injured in a crash, and two others were exposed to cocaine.
The incident occurred in Albany at around 3:40 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 18, in the area of Madison Avenue and Quail Street.
According to Albany Police Officer Megan Craft, officers responded to a domestic-related incident and requested a backup unit over the radio while dealing with a combative person.
While attempting to take the suspect into custody, two officers were exposed to powder cocaine that the suspect had in his possession; two separate police units in the area of Madison Avenue and Quail Street were responding to the officers in need of assistance when they crashed into each other, Craft said.
The two officers who were exposed to powder cocaine were treated and evaluated at Albany Memorial Hospital.
Craft said the four officers were treated at the scene of the motor vehicle accident and transported to Albany Medical Center Hospital, where they are all listed in stable condition.
