Ford was allegedly driving erratically in a stolen car early Wednesday morning when police began to to pursue him. Ford later entered the wrong direction of a one-way street and crashed his vehicle. When the police arrived on the scene, Lee allegedly fired shots into the window of the police cruiser, wounding one officer.
He is charged with two counts of armed criminal action, two counts of assault on a law enforcement officer and one count of discharging a firearm at a motor vehicle. He is being held on a $75,000 cash-only bond.
