"She was the passenger who was exiting the vehicle when the police officers pulled up to investigate the driver," Sgt. Rita Boehm said. He decided to leave and the car was put into reverse, striking her and one of the officers. Neither was hurt seriously and none of the shots the officer fired hit anyone. The incident happened just before 6 p.m. Saturday near Dundas and Pembroke Sts. as plainclothes cops investigated drug dealing in the area. Witnesses said they heard four shots fired and the driver of the car escaped north on Pembroke St. Boehm said the woman, who is five months pregnant, was co-operating with police but wasn't able to help identify the driver of the leased vehicle -- a black Pontiac Catera that was found abandoned a few blocks away on Granby St. with a window smashed out and bullet holes in the windshield. "She's been very helpful." Boehm said of the pregnant woman, who was taken to hospital with minor injuries. "She indicated there was no doubt in her mind that these people were police officers because they identified themselves verbally and with their badges." Francis Olaye, 29, of Toronto, surrendered to police at 51 Division around 1:30 p.m. yesterday. He is charged with dangerous driving, failing to remain, assault with a weapon, and failing to comply with a recognizance order. - --- MAP posted-by: Richard Lake
