Brandon Adams, 23, was being questioned by an officer in Georgia over an alleged shoplifting but refused to take his keys out of the ignition. As the cop reaches for them, he steps on the gas.
Body camera footage shows the moment a police officer was dragged across a gas station forecourt and into the road after reaching into a suspect’s car to take they keys out of the ignition.
The officer, from Savannah-Chatham in Georgia, was taking part in a routine stop last Saturday after being called to the reports of shoplifting at a Shell gas station.
After he arrived a shop assistant pointed out Brandon Adams, 23, who was sitting in his car outside, saying he had handed over a fake check a few weeks earlier.
