DUI suspected after man crashes into Pasadena police car

PASADENA — A man was arrested on suspicion of drunken driving early Saturday after crashing into a police car, police said.
Levon Grigoryan, 26, of Glendale was allegedly driving erratically about 1 a.m. near Colorado Boulevard and Garfield Avenue when a police officer tried to pull him over, Pasadena police Lt. Tracey Ibarra said.
Grigoryan apparently made an attempt to parallel park and struck the police car as he was backing up, causing minor damage, she said.
He told officers he did not realize they were behind him trying to pull him over, Ibarra said, and he was arrested on suspicion of drunken driving.
According to court records, Grigoryan was released after posting $15,000 bail. An initial court date was not available Saturday.
