very early Tuesday morning.
Tyler
Allan Armstrong has been charged with aggravated fleeing a stop, driving while
intoxicated leading to physical injury, and third-degree assault.

Armstrong struck two patrol cars, injuring an officer in one of the cars.
Officers pursued. The pursuit ended when Armstrong crashed into a parked car at
9th and Church where he was arrested.
Armstrong
is being held without bond.
