BALTIMORE, MD (WBFF) — A Baltimore Police officer was sent to Shock Trauma on Sunday after a dirt bike struck her from behind during an arrest in Charles North, court records show.
This weekend’s incident in the 1700 block of Maryland Avenue, near Penn Station, comes as the city’s political and law enforcement leaders look to address illegal and sometimes dangerous dirt bike riding across Baltimore.
A city police officer identified only by the last name Vasquez was taken to the Maryland Shock Trauma Center around 3 a.m. Sunday, soon after authorities took a 30-year-old man into custody, according to the man’s charging documents.
Vasquez has since been released from the hospital, a police spokesperson said Wednesday, but has not yet returned to duty.
