Milwaukee, WI - On Tuesday, a Milwaukee Police squad was hit (side-wiped) by a gray vehicle on its left driver's side while an officer was seating inside. An unidentified driver going northbound around 5:00 p.m. on S. Layton Blvd. at the 900 block hit the squad on the side causing door and rear view side door mirror damage on the squad driver's side. 

The male driver was immediately pulled over at the Walgreen's parking lot. A child accompanied the driver.

A woman in the area said, the police squad was parked in front of 940 S. Layton Blvd. facing North when the driver drove by to close and side-wiped the squad. The driver stopped after the incident.

Police would not give any additional details, other that the male driver was detained for questioning and pending an investigation.
