Gillette, WY: Two drivers cited in School bus and patrol car Crash on 14th October,2014

A Tucson police officer and a Sunnyside district bus driver were both cited for a crash on the city’s south side last week. The crash occurred Oct. 14 on South Campbell Avenue near East Wyoming Street. The officer, Dan Bowling, who has been with the department two years, was en route to assist another officer, said Sgt. Pete Dugan, a Tucson Police Department spokesman. The patrol car did not have its lights flashing or siren on. Bowling was traveling south on Campbell and rear-ended a Sunnyside Unified School District bus, which made a right turn from Wyoming onto Campbell, Dugan said. The officer was cited for speed greater than reasonable and prudent, and for not wearing a seat belt, Dugan said. The bus driver was cited for failure to yield from a stop sign, Dugan said. He explained that the bus driver did not yield for oncoming traffic once he proceeded from the stop sign. Damage estimates to the patrol car and bus were not available, said Dugan. Bowling was hospitalized for his injuries. None of the 17 people, including the driver, aboard the school bus was injured, said district officials on the day of the crash.
