ELKTON, Md. — It was just after midnight along East Pulaski Highway near the Big Elk Mall, when a pair of Elkton police officers pulled over a white Nissan Altima with a tag light out.
Once it was stopped, they smelled marijuana and decided to search the vehicle.
“Officer Lowery goes to make contact with the male passenger in the back seat. When he does so, Miss Clark takes off and flees eastbound towards Delaware on Pulaski Highway,” said Elkton Police Lt. Ron Odom, “During the course of her flight, she hits Officer Lowery with her car by way of running over his foot.”
Police eventually abandoned their pursuit in Delaware, as paramedics transported the injured officer to Christiana Care Elkton where he was treated for minor injuries and released.
In the meantime, police secured a warrant for 22-year-old Aniyah Breshae Clark, the driver of the car, which had sped away.
Clark is from Wilmington, Delaware, and police say she had recently been frequenting the Elkton area and had previously come into contact with officers.
“We have filed a warrant for her arrest. That is on file,” said Odom, “We do have extradition authorization from the state’s attorney’s office for her arrest, and we just want the public’s assistance in helping to find her so we can get her in custody for hitting our officer.
Clark's vehicle is described as a 2017 4-door white Nissan Altima, with Delaware registration 484702.
Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to call 911.
