Rutland police have arrested a man in connection with an incident back in January
where an officer was struck by a car in Oakham High Street. Just after 3:00 on Monday afternoon, the 26th of January two officers approached a grey Honda CRV that was illegally parked when the driver of the car, a man, is reported to have refused to engage and driven towards one of the officers. The car hit the officer, causing him to mount the bonnet before landing on the pavement. He suffered minor cuts and grazes as a result. The Honda then collided with two stationary vehicles before making off from the scene. It was found abandoned later the same day in Harrington Way. Since the incident, officers have been carrying out a number of inquiries in order to find the driver responsible. Yesterday morning a 30-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of attempted grievous bodily harm in relation to the incident. He's currently in police custody.
