"A 25-year-old Las Vegas man is facing attempted murder and battery charges after police say he intentionally rammed his car into a police cruiser parked outside a 99 Cent store on Sunday.According to a Metro Police arrest report released Tuesday, at about 8:36 p.m. Sunday, an officer was inside his cruiser in the parking lot of the 99 Cent store, 7239 Spring Mountain Road, filling out a report about a robbery at the store. The patrol vehicle, which was legally parked, had its parking lights illuminated, the report stated.
As the officer was working inside his car, a maroon Mazda Protégé slammed into the rear of the patrol vehicle, throwing the officer off his seat, police said.
A witness told police investigators he saw a dark-colored vehicle reverse out of its parking space, turn around and then zoom toward the marked police car at a speed of 25 mph to 35 mph. He told police that he didn’t see brake lights or any attempt on behalf of the driver to slow down – the vehicle, he said, sped up and appeared headed in a straight line, avoiding two or three other parked cars, as it headed directly toward the police car, the report said."
