LETHBRIDGE – Police are looking for a Lincoln MKX after an officer was hit and dragged Tuesday morning (Jan. 30) in south Lethbridge.
According to police, they received a call about a suspicious vehicle near 20 Ave. S, and went to investigate.
One officer on foot noticed the Lincoln pull into a parking lot in the 2100 Bl. of Palm Road S and recognized it as one that had been reported stolen.
Police say the officer approached one of the doors of the SUV and asked the driver to exit. When he didn’t do so, the officer tried the door handle and was dragged a short distance when the SUV drove forward.
