A sheriff’s deputy ran into a power pole early Wednesday morning after colliding with a passenger car, according to the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office.

The collision occurred at the intersection of Bodine Avenue and McGuire Road around 6:33 a.m. Kootenai County Undersheriff Brett Nelson said a preliminary investigation indicates the passenger vehicle pulled out in front of the patrol car.

The deputy sustained minor injuries and was transported to Kootenai Health, while the K-9 riding in the vehicle with him was examined by a veterinarian and determined to be unhurt.
