A man is in jail after the authorities say he injured a state trooper while trying to flee from law enforcement near Pueblo on Saturday afternoon.

Troopers pulled over a van on Interstate 25 after receiving a tip that the driver had been drinking, the Colorado State Patrol said in a news release.

The driver, a 32-year-old man who lives in Weston, was uncooperative and sped off during the traffic stop, knocking the trooper to the ground, the authorities said.

A second state trooper disabled the suspect’s vehicle by ramming his patrol car into the van, and the authorities arrested the suspect and booked him into the Pueblo County jail on suspicion of driving under the influence, assault on a peace officer, felony eluding and other alleged crimes.

The trooper who was knocked over was taken to a hospital, where he was treated and released, the authorities said.
