The three had just completed a traffic stop east of downtown Spokane and were headed to the Public Safety Building near downtown to end their shifts.
When the deputy in the marked car turned on the lights, deputies in the unmarked Mustang accelerated, Reagan said.
After the cars entered the city, a city police officer saw the chase and joined in, thinking the deputy in the marked patrol car was trying to make a legitimate stop.
Officers heard radio calls about the chase and laid a spike strip across a street about three blocks from the Public Safety Building, flattening one of the Mustang's tires.
The undercover deputy who was driving got out of the car as police officers pointed guns at him, telling him to get on the ground, Reagan said.
Another Spokane police officer arriving at the scene quickly got out of his car to assist, but apparently failed to set his parking brake, Reagan said. That vehicle rolled through a cable fence and struck a pole, causing about $2,000 damage. The only damage to the unmarked Mustang was a flat tire.
I hate cops.
