SILVERTON -- A Hamilton County sheriff's deputy was injured in a chase and crash in Silverton late Tuesday night, according to the sheriff's department. 

Reports indicate the chase started about 11 p.m. on Kennedy Ave. when the deputy tried to pull a car over that was swerving out of its lane on Kennedy Avenue. The car refused to stop, beginning a low speed pursuit. 

"The vehicle stopped at the traffic light at Woodford, and is continuing on, with us directly behind him on Kennedy," one officer reported to dispatchers. 

The pursuit ended when the car pulled into a driveway on Montgomery Road in Silverton. At that point, according to a media release, the driver, Darwin Weaver, 61, was removed from the car. 

But officers said the car then began rolling down the driveway, and the car's door hit the deputy, knocking him to the ground. 

The car continued to roll and a tire rolled over the deputy's foot, authorities said. 

The car then rolled out of the driveway, striking the deputy's cruiser and continuing across the road before hitting a pole in a nearby yard. 

"Attention all cars and departments, reference the white Cadillac refusing to stop, that vehicle has crashed at Montgomery and Siebern," a dispatcher said. 

Dispatchers told News 5 the deputy was taken to Bethesda North Hospital for treatment. Authorities confirm he was released overnight Wednesday. 

Police arrested Weaver and charged him with resisting arrest, failure to comply and OVI.
