Police Cruiser Destroyed During Leisurely Afternoon Drive Home

 

SAN ANGELO, TX — After a long day on the job, a San Angelo police officer was driving home in a police cruiser when tragedy struck. Police routinely drive their work vehicle home as it provides visibility of law enforcement within San Angelo’s neighborhoods.

According to the investigating officer and not the officer involved, a driver of a Toyota Camry failed to yield the right of way to the policeman and a collision ensued.

The crash happened at the intersection of Chatterton and Forest Trail at around 5:30 p.m. Police gave us the conclusion of the initial investigation, however, police had not yet issued any citation. No one was hurt seriously enough to be transported by ambulance from the crash scene. Watch:

You can look at the pictures of the accident and see the civilian hit the police car and the civilian had either a yield or stop sign.  Something this small gets you radicals just screaming.  Radical stupidity is one of the main reasons this country is divided.  Until people stop listening to your stupidity we will continue to fail as a country.  

Will the cop be required to take a drug test? I know if I were wreck my work truck I would have to take a drug test. I’m guessing the standard of accountability is lower for law enforcement.
