Police Unsure of the Cause of the Crash
Initial information about the accident indicates that the crash occurred at 2300 W. Allegheny Avenue at about 1:07 am. It involved a marked police patrol vehicle and a white Toyota Prius.
Medics were called to the scene of the accident and had to take both officers in the patrol car and the driver of the Prius to Temple University Hospital with injuries, though it is unclear the extent of their injuries.
The Philadelphia Police Department did not release any additional information about the accident, including what caused the accident, who was at fault, or the condition of those involved.
Uncovering Fault When Police Officers Are Involved
In a case like this, it is unclear who may be at fault. Police will investigate, but for the driver of the other vehicle, it may be hard to know the accuracy of that investigation without your own attorney. If you are in an accident with a police car, it is always worthwhile to hire a car accident lawyer to represent you.
