A Vancouver police officer suffered minor injuries and a cruiser is banged up after a police chace Thursday night. 

Vancouver police say it began around 9:45 pm when officers interupted a break and enter in the 3400 block of Lougheed highway. 

A man then fled the scene in a stolen pickup truck with a woman in the passenger seat. 

Both Vancouver police and Burnaby RCMP were involved in the chase. 

Police thought they had the suspect boxed in but the driver smashed into a VPD cruiser forcing his way out. 

The truck was later found abandoned at Eton and Willingdon. 

Vancouver police are looking for a man in his 50's, about 5'10" tall, with a heavy build. 

He was wearing a toque, blue jeans, and might have a cut in his head after ramming the VPD cruiser. 

The injured officer was treated by paramedics at the scene.
