MPD officer arrested and suspended after allegedly assaulting federal officer
 
A Metropolitan Police Department officer was suspended and arrested after allegedly ramming a federal police vehicle and fleeing the scene in Washington, D.C.

Officer Montez Clark, 27, was charged with assault on a federal police officer, fleeing from law enforcement, and leaving after colliding, according to a statement from the MPD. The charges stem from an incident on Monday night in which the D.C. police sergeant allegedly rammed his Camaro into a federal police vehicle with three federal agents in it, while fleeing a traffic stop.
 
The MPD told the Washington Examiner that Clark is being charged, as well as Sakou Yates, 25, and Russell Campbell, 23, with carrying a pistol without a license, possession of an unregistered firearm, possession of unregistered ammunition, possession of a large capacity ammunition feeding device, violation of the National Firearms Act, and possession of a machine gun. Campbell was also charged with felon in possession.

"Clark is on administrative leave pending the outcome of this case and an investigation by MPD’s Internal Affairs Bureau. MPD cannot comment further on active internal investigations and personnel matters," the MPD concluded.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
