Bakersfield, CA – Detective Injured in Police Car Crash at 17th and F Streets

Bakersfield, CA. (July 11, 2018) – According to a local and reliable news outlet, one police officer was injured following a motor vehicle accident in the vicinity of 17th and F Streets, Wednesday. The exact time of the accident was not made immediately available.

Reports that were released stated that a Bakersfield Police Department Detective was apparently heading southbound on F Street in a silver, unmarked BPD car when he was hit by a motorist. The female driver of the other vehicle was reportedly driving west on 7th Street and allegedly ran through a red light, subsequently hitting the officer’s car.

Paramedics were quickly on the scene in order to provide aid to the detective who was rushed to a local hospital for treatment of minor injuries. The detective, whose name has not been disclosed, is reportedly a member of the police departments’ burglary unit. The female driver who is currently assumed to have caused the collision was not injured in the accident. Authorities are presently conducting a thorough investigation into this crash.

We would like to offer our sincere sympathies to the victim of this crash as we hope for his full recovery.

Motor Vehicle Accident Injury Attorney

The liable party seems to be fairly clear at this time, although investigators will certainly be looking into multiple factors such as distracted driving, intoxication, and excessive speed. Depending on the conclusive results of the investigation, there may very well be possible grounds for a personal injury lawsuit available to the detective. While we are continuously proud of our passionate commitment to holding negligent drivers liable for the pain they cause, the decision to file a claim for compensation may only be made by the victim.
