Ledyard — Ledyard police say an officer conducting a motor vehicle stop suffered minor injuries after being struck by the passenger-side mirror of another vehicle, which did not stop.

According to the police report, the officer had been conducting a motor vehicle stop at 2:20 a.m. Saturday on Route 2, which has two westbound travel lanes and two eastbound travel lanes.

The officer charged a driver with operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol and/or narcotics and was speaking to that driver, when a gray or dark-colored, four-door sedan hit the officer with its passenger-side mirror at 2:23 a.m.

The officer was treated for the minor injuries at Backus Hospital in Norwich and released, according to the report.
