COLORADO SPRINGS, CO : Hit-and-run driver smashes into Colorado Springs police cruiser on Sunday, 20th October 2024
Colorado Springs, Colorado
No officers were injured after a pickup drove through a blocked section of road and hit a police cruiser Sunday night.
Police were working a crash at Garden of the Gods and Mark Dabling and had blocked some of the westbound lanes for that investigation, a CSPD lieutenant said.
“A fully marked police cruiser was in the roadway with emergency lights activated, as well as traffic cones out to protect the scene. One of the vehicles involved in the crash was inoperable and needed towed from the scene and officers were awaiting the arrival of the tow truck.”
The suspect driver plowed through the cones and rear-ended the cruiser.
