The officers encountered the teen on a rural route at 2:30 a.m. while they were investigating a separate traffic accident. The officers saw the teen's car approach them; it stopped just a few feet away and then suddenly accelerated right toward them. One officer was thrown onto the hood and suffered serious injury to an arm. The officers tried to get the teen to stop the car but he wouldn't. The teen then apparently tried to run down the other officer, knocking him into the air. The second officer also suffered an injury.
The teen then left the scene of the crime, driving slowly but erratically. He was apprehended shortly thereafter and was determined to be intoxicated (to the point of stupor) with marijuana and mushrooms.
