Nova Scotia RCMP say a Mountie who was taken to hospital after being struck by a truck in the town of Windsor is doing well.
Cpl. Scott MacRae says the officer received non-life-threatening lower body injuries after being hit during a traffic stop on Highway 232 around 6 p.m. Saturday.
Police say the officer was struck when the black Dodge Dakota backed up during the stop and fled the scene.
They say after a short pursuit, the driver was caught after crashing his truck on Highway 354.
Investigators say he was taken to hospital with what appears to be a broken leg.
