A Pennsylvania police officer discharged their weapon during a traffic stop after being repeatedly struck by a vehicle allegedly driven by 21-year-old Dalton Lee Janiczek. Janiczek, the son of a well-known Pennsylvania attorney, is now facing attempted-murder charges following the incident. According to the District Attorney’s office, Janiczek allegedly accelerated his Mercedes G-Wagon toward an officer, prompting the officer to fire their weapon. The DA’s office further stated that Janiczek continued to strike the officer with the vehicle, even after the officer was on the ground attempting to apply a tourniquet to a leg wound.<\/p>\n
Reports indicate that the Mercedes circled back and struck the injured officer multiple times. Several officers were hospitalized following the incident, but are reportedly in stable condition. A video purportedly capturing the event has surfaced on social media, adding a visual dimension to the already serious allegations. The legal proceedings against Janiczek will likely be closely watched, particularly given the details of the alleged assault and the involvement of a prominent local family.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
