On August, 2021, 5 at approximately 7:50 p.m., a patrol officer from the Charles County Sheriff’s Office was flagged down regarding ATVs and mini bikes on the roadway in the 3800 block of Chicamuxen Road in Marbury.
As the officer investigated, he observed a yellow ATV on the shoulder of the road with the engine on but unattended. Several people were nearby on dirt bikes. As the officer was attempting to turn the ATV off, an unknown male approached, pushed the officer, and then got on the ATV and drove off, striking the officer in the leg and injuring the officer’s knee and ankle.
All of the riders fled.
The officer was treated for injuries to his leg.
The suspect is described as having a large build, wearing a black tank top and black shorts. He also had a GoPro-style camera attached to his forehead.
Anyone with information about the identity of the suspect is asked to call Sgt. Rager at 301-932-2222.
