A woman was pushed out of the driver's seat and run over by a passenger during a traffic stop Tuesday night.

Officers spotted a suspect in other crimes riding in the vehicle on E. Washington Ave.

The man attempted to grab a backpack as a K-9 unit and officers approached the vehicle. He ignored requests by officers to leave the vehicle and was apprehended by the K-9. A loaded handgun was found inside the backpack.
