The incident began about 1:30 p.m. Sunday when police tried to make a traffic stop of a silver mini-van near downtown, the Washoe County Sheriff's Office said.
The driver of the mini-van failed to stop and headed toward downtown, the sheriff's office said in a statement.
The mini-van tried to get past a barricade in front of the annual Biggest Little City Wing Fest and then swerved toward a police officer who was on foot, the sheriff's office said.
The officer opened fire, causing the man to crash into a vendor, KTVN reported.

Wing Fest, an annual chicken wings cook-off, is a three-day event that features 25 wing cookers, a free concert and draws 80,000 people.

The guy jumped out of the frying pan into the fire.
Did he die? Nope, I guess the cop just winged him.
But in the end he’ll get fingered & subsequently fried.
(And I don’t give a cluck.)
Featherweight.
He flew through the barricade on a wing and a prayer.
They should fry him in Smith & Wesson Oil.
You hatched these jokes out of thin air, and they aren’t all they’re cracked up to be, you know.
The guy was just winging it.
Or was the Marshall Foghorn Leghorn?
Playing chicken and lost.
I suspect a certain Colonel. First name of Harlan.
Should have said Harland.
Unless Harlan Coben also fries chicken.
Couldn’t the cops just reach through the window and pluck him out when he drove past?
Bttt

Authorities will accuse him of being a right winger. ;-)
He was either a left winger or middle of the bird. ;-)
