    Man arrested after alleged hit and run on police sergeant in Manchester | UK News

    .

    A man has been arrested after an police officer was reversed into several times during an alleged hit and run.

    Greater Manchester Police said the collision happened on Frodsham Street, Rusholme, at 6pm on Friday.

    A car was reported to have reversed into a sergeant several times, crushing his legs between two vehicles, before leaving the scene.

    Police said a 41-year-old man was later arrested on suspicion of Section 18 assault, dangerous driving, and failure to stop. He remains in custody.

    The sergeant has been taken to hospital for treatment of injuries to his legs. They are not thought to be life-threatening or life-changing.

    Assistant Chief Constable Steph Parker said: “Assaults on officers are wholly unacceptable and take them away from being able to serve and protect the public, which is what they come to work each shift to do.”

    She added an investigation is under way, and thanked “those who have already come forward with information about the incident”.

    She said: “Our priority is the wellbeing of the injured officer, and I wish him a speedy recovery as we look to pursue justice.”
