Robinson was finally subdued with the help of a third officer, authorities said.
One officer was knocked unconscious and a second had a broken hand. Both were treated and are recovering at home, officials said.
Authorities didn’t detail a motive for the attack.
Robinson previously served time for robbery and was paroled in 2016. He was sent to prison again last year from San Bernardino County to serve a four-year sentence for vehicle theft and assault with force likely to produce great bodily injury, the corrections department stated.
