Running over a Guardia Civil officer to avoid one is almost unthinkable. Instead of ending with a ticket, the encounter left a Guardia Civil traffic officer injured on the road, sparked a police manhunt and transformed a traffic offence into a criminal investigation that could carry far more serious consequences than the original violation ever would. Then everything changedAs Guardia Civil officers approached the fallen rider to arrest him, investigators say he made one final, desperate decision. According to the Guardia Civil, the suspect could face charges including assaulting a law enforcement officer, reckless driving and fleeing the scene. For the injured Guardia Civil officer, that decision resulted in injuries that could easily have been far more serious.
