A POLICE officer is in a serious condition in intensive care after she was deliberately mown down by a car.
The 30-year-old female police officer and her 31-year-old male colleague were attacked when a car they stopped suddenly reversed.
She was dragged along the road before her colleague was able to pull her out from under the wheels.
He was also injured in the attack.
The incident took place in Banner Drive, Knightswood, at around 1115pm last night.
The police said that the incident is being treated as an attempted murder and that the woman is still in a serious condition.
Police are currently conducting door-to-door enquiries and are examining CCTV footage from the area for further clues.
Detective Inspector Ian Hylands said: “Our enquiries so far have revealed that a blue Nissan Qashqai was seen at the location around the time of the incident. A vehicle matching that description has been found badly damaged by fire in Lennox Gardens, Scotstoun.
"However we have yet to confirm if that is the same vehicle. Despite the damage, forensic officers will carry out a comprehensive examination of the car.
"Everything that can be done to locate the suspects is being done but I would like to appeal to anyone who may have seen the incident last night or who has any knowledge of the vehicle or the suspects to contact us.
"Two police officers, in responding to an incident to help protect the public, have been badly injured. Help us find those responsible.”
