Cop opens fire on a man who rammed a Mercedes G-Wagon into officers

A Pennsylvania police officer fired at a man driving a Mercedes G-Wagon after he began ramming his car into officers. Dalton Lee Janiczek, 21, has been arrested and charged with attempted murder following what started as a routine traffic stop. Janiczek, the son of a well-known Pennsylvania lawyer, allegedly hit an officer with his car multiple times, even while the officer was on the ground. Several officers were hospitalized but are reported to be in stable condition.

"Janiczek accelerated directly at the officer, attempting to hit him, and the officer discharged his firearm," the DA’s office said.

"Again, Janiczek accelerated the vehicle, this time striking the officer, causing him to fall."

"As the officer attempted to administer a tourniquet to a leg wound, the Mercedes circled back around the lot and struck the officer three more times as he laid on the ground."
