According to the Washington County Sheriff's Office, deputies were called to the scene of a hit-and-run crash Thursday morning in Aloha. Soon after, deputies found the car involved in the hit-and-run, a blue Toyota SUV.

Deputies tried to pull the car over, but the driver refused to stop. They said the driver rammed into two patrol cars during the pursuit. One deputy was hurt but was expected to be OK.
