The officer, who was run over by Armando, was also transported to the hospital to be treated for fractured ribs, abrasions, and bruising throughout his entire body. After fleeing from the officer, Armando's wife later revealed to police that they were traveling between 80 and 100 m an hour before they crashed into a vehicle, throwing her off the motorcycle.
