A car crashed into a house in El Cajon early Monday morning, ending a brief police pursuit.

The house was at the corner of North Mollison Avenue and Bradley Street, north of Interstae 8.

There were no injuries in the crash. However, the house was badly damaged, and one woman who was sleeping inside the house was nearly injured as the crash pushed a bookshelf closer to her bed.

The pursuit began when police responded to a report of an “armed suspicious person.” They located a car matching the reported description, but the driver refused to yield. He evaded capture for about a minute, before running a red light and hitting the house.

Following the crash, the driver was arrested. His identity has not been released.
