Three law enforcement officers crashed and were injured during a Thursday evening motorcycle training in Arapahoe County, sheriff’s officials said.

Police officers and sheriff’s deputies from multiple metro area law enforcement agencies were participating in an annual motorcycle training exercise Thursday when, around 6:30 p.m., three police motorcycles crashed, according to a statement from the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office.
