VON ORMY, Texas — A Von Ormy officer was injured and is expected to recover after her patrol unit rolled in an accident Saturday afternoon, according to Bexar County authorities.
Officials say the patrol officer was responding to a motorcycle accident on I-35 and Loop 1604 just after noon when another car didn't see it going through an intersection, causing the officer's unit to spin around and hit a third vehicle. It eventually came to a stop after flipping onto its side.
The intersection was briefly shut down in the aftermath of the wreck, and the unidentified officer was taken to University Hospital with non-serious injuries.
Occupants in the other vehicles were also hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries. Authorities say no criminal charges have been filed, but the investigation is ongoing.
