Des Moines officer returns to work after injury
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - A Des Moines police officer who was run
over by a pickup truck while on duty has returned to work.
Thirty-one-year-old Nick Lloyd suffered broken bones and teeth
last October when he was run over by the truck in the parking lot
of an apartment complex.
Lloyd, who underwent extensive physical therapy and was confined
to a wheelchair for a time, returned to work on Monday.
A Des Moines man was charged with attempted murder and other
crimes stemming from the incident. Elvin Redmond is accused of
ramming Lloyd's police cruiser while trying to escape authorities
after a series of assaults at the apartment complex.
