CANTON, MA — Police arrested the man they believe led them on a car chase along I-95, dragging a State Trooper who was caught on the driver's door in the process. The man was pulled over for speeding on I-95 South just after midnight on Thursday. When the trooper got to the car, he noticed what looked like marijuana and asked the man to step out of the car. The driver refused and tried to speed off — police said the trooper's hand got stuck when he was trying to open the door, and he was dragged a short distance. The trooper only had minor hand injuries and refused to go to the hospital. The man continued to drive, taking Exit 10 into Walpole and eventually crashed his car — police said he ran away on foot after the crash. The man was found and arrested in Sharon on Thursday morning.
