Officers said that when they tried to get Hines out of his vehicle he drove off, leading to a pursuit. According to officers, Hines eventually came to a stop before backing into a patrol car and fleeing his vehicle. Officers caught Hines and said that he resisted arrest. The report indicates that it took three officers to get him into handcuffs.

According to police, they also arrested a passenger who had warrants out for his arrest.

No officers were hurt in the altercation however, there was damage to the front bumper of the patrol car.
