Do we know if he was responding to a call at the time of the crash?

I noticed a bike officer the other day and for some reason strongly considered the danger that adds to the job. Praying that he makes it through for his family.

looks like someone pulled out from the apartments on jones creek in front of the officer

looking at street view (can see fence and trees), the suv came out of the apartment entrance. no red light there, so they going to be 100% in the fault....

The BRPD family is in need of your prayers. A BRPD motorcycle officer was involved in a serious crash today around 2:30pm in the 6400 block of Jones Creek near Shenandoah. The officer was transported to a local hospital with critical injuries. Fellow Officers, friends and families are rallying together in support and with prayers for the officer and his family. Thank you in Advance.....

Probably nothing. The stupid bitch (I think she was drunk too) who pulled out in front of Cpl. Metternich on Sherwood/Newcastle in 2006 got a slap on the wrist.

The BRPD Union posted that he was going into surgery. I'm assuming that means he at least survived the trip to the hospital.

SPEEDY, I heard this guy has been in a fairly high-profile incident before. Is that true?

How does one even pull out in front of a funeral procession? I just don't get how that happened.

Poor officer and his family and poor family on their way to burying a loved one and going through this. Tough stuff.

Probably leading procession going to next light before procession. They fly doing that but with lights and sirens. Prayers.
