Nassau Police: Driver 'brushed' cop

Nassau County police were looking Thursday for the driver of a vehicle that "brushed" an officer in East Meadow during a traffic stop, a police said.

The Nassau motorcycle officer was not injured in the incident at about 2:30 p.m. on Diamond Avenue just west of the Wantagh Parkway, police said.

Police said the officer had pulled over two vehicles and was questioning one driver when the second driver suddenly put his Ford Explorer into reverse, striking the officer's motorcycle.

The Explorer then drove off, brushing the officer with the driver's side mirror, police said.
