A police officer near Palmerston North was struck by a stolen vehicle at 2 AM, suffering a severe head injury and remaining on a ventilator but stable. He’s recovering in Wellington Hospital’s neurology ward, set to move to a specialized rehab facility. The two teens involved—14 and 15—are charged with reckless driving and wounding, with names suppressed due to age, and are due in court next month. Police leadership, including Superintendent Dion Bennett, has shown strong support for the officer and his family, who remain hopeful as he continues his long road to recovery.
