Fenton, MI (November 25, 2021) – A deputy was badly injured at about 9:30 a.m. on Monday, November 22nd when he pulled a vehicle over for a traffic violation on Butcher Road, in the area of Fenton Road, in Fenton Township.

An official from the Genesee County Sheriff’s Department said that the 35-year-old male driver fled the scene, moments after the deputy made contact.  

The deputy, who was still in the window of the vehicle, was dragged for a short distance. He then lost his balance and fell, sustaining a serious head injury.

The deputy was transported to a nearby hospital for immediate treatment of his head wound. 

The suspect has since been apprehended.

Our thoughts are with the injured victim and their family at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
