Two people were arrested in an alleged stolen car in San Francisco after ramming two San Bruno patrol cars on the 700 block of El Camino Real and leading police on a pursuit at relatively low speeds early Friday morning, according to police.
At approximately 12:18 a.m., San Bruno officers spotted an occupied stolen vehicle and had their cars rammed as they tried to bring the pair into custody. The car was damaged from ramming the police cars and could not go that fast. The pursuit ended on Geary and Powell streets in Union Square and both were taken into custody with help from San Francisco police. Two San Bruno officers were taken to the hospital for minor injuries caused in the crash and released after treatment, according to police.
The driver of the vehicle, Honey Panopio, 31, of San Francisco, was placed under arrest for numerous charges including an assault with a deadly weapon on police officers, felony evading, felony driving under the influence of a controlled substance, the possession of a stolen vehicle, identity theft and violation of probation. The passenger, Justin Macawile, 28, was placed under arrest for possession of a stolen vehicle, and violation of probation. Both were booked into the San Mateo County Jail, according to police.
