Duuuuh, don't move. Story out of St. Cloud, Florida:
A St. Cloud police officer ran over an aggravated battery suspect who was ordered to the ground early Monday, according to a department spokeswoman.
Police received a call around 12:15 a.m. about an in-progress aggravated battery with a weapon. The suspect was later identified as 37-year-old Ray W. Prescott.
After receiving word the suspect had fled, the officer saw the suspect near 14th Street and Wyoming Avenue. The officer ordered the suspect to the ground in the road, and the suspect complied, police said.
A backup officer, Glenn Whitter, was arriving on scene and the front right tire of the cruiser hit the suspect "at a low speed," police said.
"First aid was immediately rendered by the police officers on scene, and the suspect subsequently was transported to an area hospital," a police spokeswoman said in a statement.
Police said "poor visibility" could have been a factor in the incident. Cont.
