Earlier, around 3:30 p.m., another cruiser was struck by a stolen vehicle on Davidson Drive, police say.
One officer was transported to the hospital with minor injuries. Police say there was minimal damage to the cruiser.
It is not immediately known anyone has been arrested.
The two incidents come a day after three police officers were hurt while investigating alleged stolen vehicles in Etobicoke.
In a post on social media, the Toronto Police Association responded to the incidents, saying, “There is no deterrent for criminals who injure our officers, and it’s putting the lives of our members at risk! Enough is enough!”
