COP FIRES ON SUV IN TAKEDOWN

A Durham narcotics officer opened fire on an SUV that tried to run 
over another undercover officer after a failed takedown in a drug probe.

The undercover officer wasn't injured when the red Cadillac Escalade 
came at him in the 9:30 p.m. Sunday attempted arrest at Simcoe and Gibbs Sts.

Police aren't sure if the SUV driver was hit by any of the slugs, 
Sgt. Paul McCurbin said. The 2002 vehicle is registered to a 
35-year-old Oshawa man.

The SUV took off and was last seen in the Taunton and Wilson Rds. 
area in northeast Oshawa.

The driver is male, black, 5-foot-10 and 170 pounds.

Although police know who they are looking for, they did not release a 
name or detail the charges. The SUV's licence is ANRH 446, McCurbin said.
