There was a foot chase, and when officers caught up the 28 year old man, he fought with them. One of the officers suffered a cut on the hand. They say during the chase, the Oxnard man toss away a handgun which was recovered.
Navarro was arrested on charges he was a felon illegally in possession of a gun, carrying a concealed weapon, and causing an injury to an officer.
