Police have interviewed and released three teenagers who are believed to have been in a car that struck a Granite School District officer and then “scattered” after the officer shot the teenage driver through the windshield.
Officers are looking for one more passenger, an adult man, Granite School District spokesman Ben Horsley said Wednesday.
The Granite police officer, who is in his first year in law enforcement, had been patrolling a neighborhood near Hunter High School looking for truant students Tuesday afternoon.
As the officer approached, the car “lurched” forward and he was thrown onto the hood.
