Cop dragged by car on Sunshine Coast

A Queensland police officer has been dragged down the road by a car he stopped for a breath test.

The officer was conducting the test at Maroochydore early Wednesday morning when the motorist drove off, causing him to become trapped in the window and dragging him along until he fell onto the road. He suffered minor leg injuries.

Police are now hunting for the driver who is aged in his 30s, bald and of large, solid build with a large tribal shoulder tattoo and tattoos on his forearm.
