Description:

On November 7, 2015, a 37-year-old municipal police officer was fatally injured when her patrol car was struck by another law enforcement vehicle on a city roadway while responding to a shots fired call. The officer was en-route to her primary patrol region after escorting a suspect to the city jail when she responded to a shots fired call from municipal dispatch. Multiple university and municipal police officers were working in the same vicinity and simultaneously responded to the shots fired call. As the municipal police officer was traveling westbound, running lights and sirens, she entered an intersection against the traffic control device. At the same time, a university police officer traveling northbound, also running lights and siren, entered the same intersection. The northbound university patrol vehicle crashed into the westbound municipal patrol car. Both officers were taken to a local medical center by ambulance. The municipal police officer died from injuries sustained in the crash. The university police officer received serious injuries.
