Last Friday, North East Police Corporal Annette Goodyear was on crossing guard detail when a car barrelled through the crosswalk narrowly missing a student and hitting the officer.
Video footage from the incident shows Goodyear push the student out of the way of the car just before the car clips her, knocking her to the ground. The student was unharmed, and Goodyear was treated for minor injuries at the hospital and released.
The driver was cited for negligent driving, failing to stop at a yield sign, failure to stop for a pedestrian in a crosswalk, and driving with an expired registration plate.
