A man has been arrested for allegedly driving off during a random breath test in Adelaide's west, injuring a police officer.
SA Police said the Woodville West man, 46, was pulled over at an RBT on Elaine Avenue at Seaton about 5:15pm on Anzac Day.
Police said the car had been stopped only for a short time when the man at the wheel allegedly started to drive off, prompting the officer to reach through the window "in an attempt to stop the vehicle from leaving".
However, police said, the driver then closed the window, trapping the officer's arm.
"The car moved off and the officer was swung from the car," police said.

Police had released an image of the Holden Captiva, that was allegedly last seen heading west on Elaine Street.
The man was charged with endangering life, causing harm by dangerous driving and failing to answer questions.
He will face the Port Adelaide Magistrates Court today.
