A driver was taken to the hospital Thursday after troopers chased a car into Coventry, state police said.

The chase ended on Route 44, a main route to Hartford. State police didn’t say how the pursuit ended or how the driver is doing.

According to a preliminary report from state police, troopers from the Troop H barracks in Hartford chased the Toyota Camry into Coventry about 2:20 p.m.

The troopers “came across a silver Toyota Camry which engaged them in a pursuit,” Trooper Pedro A. Muniz said in a release. The chase ended, and troopers provided medical aid to the Toyota’s driver before the person was taken to the hospital to be checked.
