Hit And Run Pennsylvania Today in Pennsylvania: A Philadelphia police officer was injured Friday night after being struck by a vehicle during a traffic stop in the city's Strawberry Mansion neighborhood. The incident happened around 10:08 p.m. near 19th and Norris streets; officers were attempting to stop a vehicle connected to a report of a person with a gun when the vehicle initially stopped, then abruptly reversed, striking two police vehicles and an officer. The officer was thrown onto the hood of the vehicle before the driver fled the scene; investigators later located a vehicle believed to be involved — a black Kia with California license plates — in the area of Winona Street and Wayne Avenue in Germantown. The injured officer was taken to a hospital and is listed in stable condition, and a police sergeant suffered bruises and lacerations; no arrests had been made, but the incident was captured on an officer's body camera.
