An officer suffered minor injuries Tuesday when he jumped out of the way of a stolen truck that was driven toward him after a traffic stop, the Winnipeg Police Service says. Patrol officers pulled over a half-ton truck on Dufferin Avenue Tuesday, the police service said in a news release Wednesday. But police say when officers approached the driver, he put the truck into reverse again and drove directly toward one of the officers. The officer jumped out of the way and suffered minor injuries as a result. When the driver tried getting away, a second female passenger jumped out of the truck.
