The Evesham Police Department in New Jersey arrested a couple on Sunday morning after allegedly trying to mow officers down in what started as a routine traffic stop.
When Ferraiolo pulled into his driveway, Patton got out of the vehicle and officers moved their vehicles behind his vehicle as he remained inside.
Ferraiolo was ordered out of the vehicle, but he ignored the order and instead started driving, putting his vehicle in reverse, pulling out of the driveway at a high rate of speed and nearly striking two officers, according to police.Ferraiolo then hit a police vehicle with a K9 unit inside, police said, then drove toward the two officers who nearly got hit as he backed out of the driveway.
The suspect then drove across the lawns of his neighbors and allegedly rammed the K9 vehicle three more times purposely before attempting to leave the scene again.Before Ferraiolo could get out of the vehicle, police approached and removed him from inside. He was given medical attention at the scene before being transported to the hospital for evaluation, police said.
As Ferraiolo was removed from his vehicle, Patton, police added, attempted to interfere with their actions and told them she would"kill officers."Officers who were injured were treated at the scene, and the K9, Tango, is being treated by a veterinarian because of the four impacts to the vehicle it was inside.
