Man accused of pulling cop into vehicle, driving off

CHICAGO (AP) – A Chicago man is being held in lieu of a $100,000 bond for allegedly pulling a police officer into his vehicle during a traffic stop and driving off. Jonathon Birman is charged with the aggravated battery of a peace officer and leaving the scene of an accident. Police said they stopped the 21-year-old Birman on Tuesday because the driver allegedly was “wanted on several prior incidents.” However, a police spokeswoman said she did not have access to details about those incidents or whether there were warrants for Birman’s arrest. Birman must post $10,000 to be released on bond.
