An inspector of Road Patrol Service of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate of the Main Office of the Interior Ministry in Moscow Region came up to the car, demanded the driver to show his driving license and reached through the car window to take it. At that moment the driver blocked the officer hand in the window and started driving away. He dragged the officer about 300 meters. The police officer suffered multiple injuries and was taken to hospital. The suspect was detained the same evening.
