A man from Maryland who was allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol in Delaware allegedly assaulted officers trying to detain him and caused one of them to require medical attention from the hospital.
Just before 9:30 PM on August 7, a man from Bel Air was driving a Pathfinder on the highway when he struck a construction barrier and a Delaware River & Bay Authority Police Department Chevrolet Tahoe.
The officer who was driving the police vehicle tried to talk to the driver, but the man reportedly refused to comply. A trooper from the Delaware State Police showed up and assisted the officer, but the man still reportedly refused to get out of the vehicle, and he allegedly tried to drive away.
