The assault occurred at the North Shore transit exchange on June 22 when police were dealing with almost two-dozen intoxicated youths

Evelyn said a responding police officer attempted to arrest a male youth, who began resisting. She said other youths began pulling the officer away.

“While the officer was dealing with that situation, another male youth allegedly smashed the police officer’s windshield with a skateboard, then struck the officer in the head with it, immediately causing injury,”
