Update on Injured Officer
Monday, January 9th, 2012
Though his name has still not been released, we’ve got a brief update on the police officer who was stuck by a van during a routine traffic stop on Coney Island Avenue on Friday night. The NYPD tells us he is in stable condition at Bellevue, but suffered serious leg injuries.
The car he pulled over had been reportedly heading southbound at a high rate of speed on CIA. When the officer was questioning the occupants, police say a white Econoline van struck the officer and the stopped car, pinning the officer between the two vehicles. The driver of the van was issued a summons for speeding.
