It appears the officer ran a stop sign and was broadsided by the semi. Hopefully a change can be made so that something like this doesn't happen again, whatever that may be. It might be to not allow officers to use their laptops while traveling, it might be to put a roundabout at that intersection and others like it, whatever….
So sorry for your loss. My prayers are with the family and friends.
Very sad.

I'm curious, was C.O. Grell working at the time of the accident? Was she operating in emergency driving mode? Was she in a Department owned vehicle?
I know these videos are meant to inform, but this particular one leaves a lot of unanswered questions. Any additional news that comes out will certainly be appreciated, thank You for any updates!
