Two Newark police officers were treated for injuries they sustained early Saturday morning when a man drove off during a drug stop, dragging the officers along with his car, police said. Their body cameras captured the scary moment and was released by Newark police Saturday.

The officers responded to a call about a sick man near Charleston and Spruce streets in Newark at 2:13 a.m. Saturday, Public Safety Director Anthony F. Ambrose said.

The officers found Jacob Wolski, 30, of Aberdeen sitting in a white sedan and apparently doing drugs, police said.

After a minute or two of the officers questioning Wolski and telling him to get out of the car, Wolski puts the car in drive and speeds away, the video shows. Both officers had been partially inside the car or touching it, and body camera footage shows the officers being dragged for a few seconds and being knocked over.

The officers recorded Wolski’s license plate before the assault, and he was arrested by Edison police a short time later, police said.

“We will not tolerate people coming into this city to buy drugs,” Ambrose said in a statement. “We especially won’t tolerate them injuring or disrespecting our police. If they do, we will track them as quickly and as efficiently as we found this Monmouth County suspect.”

One officer’s hand was injured, while the other officer sustained a minor head injury. Both were treated at a hospital and released.

Wolski was handed over to Marlboro police, where he had a warrant out for his arrest. He was charged with two counts of aggravated assault, resisting arrest, eluding, unlawful possession of a weapon and possession of heroin, police said. He’s being held in Monmouth County Jail.
