Taxi Car Driving With Police Officer On Roof After Fleeing Arrest

Listen to this article

When the driver of a vehicle refused to cooperate with a police offer’s request, he tried to avoid the law by driving off. The officer tried to prevent the driver from taking off, and clung to the front of the vehicle.

As the driver continued to speed up, the officer ended up on the roof and held on to the edges as best he could, before the driver veered off road and flung the officer off the roof (can be marginally seen).

The officer sustained various injuries, including concussion, scalp hematoma, scalp contusion, facial abrasions, traumatic wet lung and right knee contusion, and remains in hospital under observation.
