In the video, a police officer points his gun at a person in a car, asking them to stop.
A few seconds later, the suspect speeds away while the police officer remains motionless in front of the vehicle.
And according to the British network “Sky News”, police officer Patrick McCarty, who appears in the video, asked the driver to stop because there was a warrant against him, but the latter left without listening to McCarty’s request.
The video ends with the arrest of the driver, who ran through an industrial area and eventually managed to knock McCarty off the front of the car.
McCarty suffered a broken back, according to the Iowa Capital Dispatch news service, which reported the driver was sentenced to 5 years in prison for causing serious injury to a police officer.
It should be noted that this incident happened in 2021, but the Iowa State Police recently released the video for the first time.
