This is the moment a Florida police officer was left seriously injured after being struck down in a hit-and-run - only for his teenage daughter to pull over to help and discover the victim was her father. Sergeant Kerstan Tatro, of Gulf Breeze Police Department, was captured on video pulling over Amy Giorgio, 30, after allegedly spotting her speeding near the south end of the Pensacola Bay Bridge. But as he leaned through the window to speak to her, she suddenly restarted her car engine and accelerated, dragging him along the road, footage shows. He was then thrown off the vehicle.
