The officers were following the stolen car when it crashed near Kalani High School about 2:45 p.m.
Two suspects were arrested at the scene; another attempted to flee but was caught nearby.
Traffic in the area slowed to a crawl for more than an hour as police closed one westbound lane to conduct an investigation.
Police did not specify how the officers were injured.
