Video After The Jump
An Ohio cop got the scare of his life when he pulled a man over for a hit and run.
Officer Jason Deaton pulled over driver, Eric German for what he thought would be a routine traffic stop. but the situation quickly escalated out of control.
The two exchanged words before Officer Deaton attempts to restrain German by handcuffing him. The officer is only able to successfully get one handcuff on German before he turns and starts resisting.
Deaton then fires his taser into German's back, that's when German became enraged and overpowers the officer and starts punching him in the face.
Luckily for Deaton, another officer came to his aid, tased German again which allowed the two cops to fully handcuff him.
Officer Deaton was taken to a local hospital and treated for injuries sustained during the fight, but he will have to return later for facial surgery.
