The officer was responding to a report of fires being lit in Lockton Avenue, Heanor, and had found a group of youths who had fled into Shipley Country Park, shortly after 7.25pm on Friday, March 25.
She was shoved with force from behind and fell forwards, which has caused her to suffer whiplash type injuries.
