The deputy was taken to a hospital with injuries to the ankle, chest and lower back. The deputy’s current condition has not been released.
Court records show the driver, Haylee Baswell, 31, is charged with aggravated assault against a public servant. A Texas Department of Public Safety trooper reported “signs of intoxication,” but her breath sample was just below the 0.08 legal limit, and prosecutors did not accept a DWI charge, according to FOX 26.
