Port St Lucie police officer was dragged for about 15 feet

Reportedly, a Port St Lucie police officer suspected Dylan Morgan of possessing marijuana amidst the traffic halt. He asked him to pull the car over and exit the vehicle. However, Dylan insisted that the claim was wrong. He said:

“I just got my car searched yesterday, sir.”

The suspect claimed he was "scared of cops" as the officer continued questioning Dylan. Shortly after, Morgan gave up a crossbody bag reportedly containing marijuana.

Later, after receiving a bag of drugs, the Port St Lucie officer repeatedly demanded he exit the vehicle. Morgan slammed on the brakes and attempted to flee as the officer was still holding on. The offender dragged the police authority for around 15 feet.

Based on sources, he asserted that he needed medical attention for his left foot and hip injuries. According to Port St Lucie Police, Morgan was subsequently detained when he returned to the location.

Reportedly, Morgan is accused of violently fighting police, possessing less than 20 grams of marijuana, and aggravated battery. He received citations from the police for having tinted taillights, an altered exhaust, and an illegal front on the windshield.
