No information was given on the condition of the person rescued.
Tempe police say there were reports of a stolen vehicle near 40th Street and University Drive.
The alleged suspect struck a police car as authorities attempted to stop the vehicle, police say.
A short pursuit ensued and later ended due to the individual driving at a high rate of speed and showing erratic behavior.
Police say one person was taken into custody near the ravine while a second individual was pulled from the car and later taken into police custody.
Both were taken to a hospital with minor injuries.
