EAST GREENWICH TOWNSHIP -- A suspect broke out of a moving State Police car after being arrested during a motor vehicle stop on the New Jersey Turnpike last night, a spokesman said.Troopers Paul Costa and Avril Ruffin arrested two suspects shortly after 10 p.m. . Timothy Whitt, 24, of Hammonton was arrested for driving drunk, and his passenger -- still unidentified, but said to be in his early 20s and from Delaware -- was arrested for obstruction, State Police Sgt. Stephen Jones said.
Jones said the obstruction suspect, also believed to be drunk at the time, was handcuffed and placed in the backseat of Ruffin's car. While en route to the Morristown State Police barracks, the suspect unbuckled his seat belt, kicked out the passenger-side door window, and dove headfirst from the moving vehicle, Jones said.
The suspect, still handcuffed, ran into the woods, and additional officers -- including more troopers, a helicopter, a canine unit and local police -- were called to the scene. Officers found the suspect laying in high grass near the southbound side of the Turnpike, Jones said.
He said the suspect was brought to Cooper Hospital to Camden for observation. No information was released on his injuries.
