November 10, 2010 Nashville security officer was dragged by car www.privateofficer.com
The guard, Kimberly, who asked Channel 4 News not to identify her by her last name, is bruised and in a lot of pain.
Kimberly was working security at McDonald’s at 12th Avenue and Broadway on Sunday. She asked a driver to move his car that was blocking the drive-through lane. The car was also backing up traffic on 12th Avenue.
Kimberly said when she approached the driver a second time, things quickly got out of control.
“The passenger in the back seat reached out of the window, pulled my jacket and tried to pull me into the car, and rolled the window up on my right arm. It was like a blackout moment. All of a sudden, the next thing I knew, I was in the middle of the street, said Kimberly.
Joey Craig also provided security that night at McDonald’s. Craig quickly came to Kimberly’s aid.
“I struck the back window with my baton and shattered the glass,” said Craig.
He said the man in the car holding Kimberly’s arm finally let go; however, Kimberly found herself in the middle of busy Broadway underneath the car.
“If I didn’t roll away from the car, the vehicle that was dragging me would have run me over,” said Kimberly. “(I have) a lot of soreness, back pain, neck pain, migraines, arms very sore and bruised, a lot of sore muscles right now.”
Metro police are looking for a champagne-colored Toyota with a broken window on the rear passenger side.
