N.C. officer suspended for drawing gun on fleeing suspect

MARSHVILLE, N.C. — A Marshville police officer has been suspended while the town looks into whether he acted appropriately when he drew his gun on a 16-year-old girl who did not immediately pull over for a traffic stop.

The girl was arrested Sunday night after she led police across nearly 3 miles of unlit country road after her mother advised her to find a safe, lighted place before pulling over
