Fleeing Motorist Knocks Two Deputies Down Near Milwaukee

(CBS) -- A Milwaukee woman pulled over on a busy interstate for speeding decided to flee and in the process knocked two deputies and a passenger to the pavement.

It was all caught on dash cam, WBBM's Mike Krauser reports.

Last Sunday, two Milwaukee County sheriff's deputies stopped a car for speeding on I-43 near Loomis Road.

The driver's license was suspended, so deputies called a tow truck.

Dash cam video obtained only by CBS 58 in Milwaukee showed the passenger out of the car with deputies nearby. All of a sudden, the driver puts the car in reverse, slams into the squad car and speeds off.

The jolt caused one of the deputies to fall and roll into oncoming traffic, while another grabbed and held on to the driver's side door. Meanwhile, the passenger is knocked into the concrete wall, unable to get up from the force.

Driver Kelvina Freeman, 23, from Milwaukee, was caught just days later and would have gotten a ticket and a fine for her initial violation. Instead, she could spend up to 45 years in prison.

Charges for multiple felonies and misdemeanors are pending, CBS 58 reports.
