BALTIMORE — A Baltimore Police sergeant is critically ill on life support after he was dragged by a car for about two blocks during a traffic stop Tuesday evening in Northwest Baltimore, Police Commissioner Michael Harrison said.
The Northwest District sergeant was making a vehicle stop minutes after 8 p.m. in the 5100 block of Park Heights Avenue in the Central Park Heights community when he “became engaged with the vehicle,” Harrison said.
“The driver hit the gas and accelerated, dragging the sergeant,” Harrison said later Tuesday night at Shock Trauma. He said the driver also struck another car in the process of fleeing.
