As the suspect began driving off again, the officer met a stranger in a passing car who was willing to help. The officer jumped on the hood of the man’s car, shouting, “Go! Drive!”For two minutes, the officer hung onto the hood of the car while directing the driver where to go, KOCO reports. When the suspect stopped briefly, the officer jumped off the car hood and took him to the ground as backup arrived. The man who drove the officer around on the hood of his car stayed on the scene, according to KOCO.
