Car-Motorcycle Accident Involving Two Police Officers Injures One, Still Under Investigation | ATL Injury Lawyer

We recently posted a blog about a police officer who sustained injuries in a Clayton County motorcycle accident.  According to an update from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the crash, which occurred last week, involved two Clayton County police officers and is still under investigation. 

The officer we previously wrote about, Officer Thrift, reportedly sustained injuries to his leg and foot and had to be flown to Grady Memorial Hospital last Thursday.  According to the police report, the accident occurred when the other officer, identified as Officer Sawyer, attempted a U-turn while driving south on Tara Blvd. at its intersection with Cardinal Rd.  As Officer Sawyer was navigating his turn, Officer Thrift's motorcycle crashed into the rear bumper of Sawyer's vehicle. 

Although Thrift was ejected from his Honda motorcycle and stated that Sawyer pulled in front of him, it is not known if an at-fault driver has been identified or if any charges have been filed in this incident.
