The force described his injuries as “life-threatening” and said his family and close colleagues were being supported by specially-trained officers.<\/p>\n

The 43-year-old man who was arrested has been released on police bail, while the other three detained after the incident remain in custody.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

‘All affected by this’<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n

Deputy Chief Constable Ben Snuggs said: “Police officers face danger every day.<\/p>\n

“In this incident, PC Christopher Miller was simply doing his job, serving the public and keeping our communities safe.<\/p>\n

“We have all been affected by this, right across Thames Valley Police.”<\/p>\n

Senior investigating officer Det Supt Will Crowther appealed for anyone with information to come forward and said: “I believe the BMW will have had front-end damage after the incident, and so if you saw the vehicle, either before the incident or afterwards, please contact us.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
