Police officer feared he would 'never walk again' after driver ran him over

A police officer was left "screaming in agony" after a van driver who'd been stopped on suspicion of transporting drugs ran over him.

The stop was made on a St Helens residential street after two officers became suspicious of the occupants of a white Transit van, parked nearby to where a holdall containing drugs and cash was found dumped in the road.

After the van drove off, the police car began following it and indicating for it to pull over. When it eventually did, the two officers got out to speak to the two occupants.
