DENVER (KDVR) — A police pursuit ended with a car crashing into a residential backyard, the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office said.

The chase began after witnesses told police they saw two men firing weapons at the Cherry Creek State Park swim beach around 6 p.m. But the men jumped in their car and took off, the sheriff’s office said.

Deputies had a description of the men and pursued a vehicle to try and stop it. When the driver wouldn’t stop, deputies used a maneuver that ended up causing the vehicle to crash through a fence into the backyard of a home around East Smoky Hill Road and East Radcliff Drive.
