FORT LAUDERDALE-HOLLYWOOD INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, FLA. (WSVN) – A Broward Sheriff’s Office deputy was taken to the hospital following car thefts and a crash at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport that ended with a man in handcuffs.

Detectives said deputies were blocking the man’s path when he drove into the deputies’ vehicles.
The subject was taken into custody, while the injured deputy was transported to an area hospital in unknown condition.
