A jury on Thursday convicted a man with second-degree assault for hitting and dragging a Baltimore police officer with his car in 2022.
Joseph Black was charged with hitting Baltimore police Sgt. Kenneth Ramberg with his car in Rosedale during a traffic stop on June 29, 2022. Ramberg suffered broken bones and a traumatic brain injury as a result of the incident.
The jury found Black not guilty on both counts of attempted murder in December and a mistrial was declared for the four other counts, including assault and weapons charges.
Black will face up to 10 years in prison when he’s sentenced in August.
