Pennsylvania police officer opens fire on a man driving a Mercedes G-Wagon after the man started ramming his car into officers. 21-year-old Dalton Lee Janiczek has been arrested and is facing attempted-murder charges after a routine traffic stop. Janiczek, the son of a prominent Pennsylvania lawyer, is accused of striking an officer with his car multiple times, even when the officer was on the ground."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."Multiple officers were taken to the hospital and are in stable condition.(From Collin Rugg via X)
