A Slight Crash

Here's what happens when you put a cop in a big top heavy 4 wheel drive vehicle. Hell, some of them have trouble keeping an Impala or Crown Victoria upright.

It actually looks like it held up pretty well - at least the windshield is still in one piece.

I don't know the circumstances of the crash, but in the first picture..... the front end and read end leads me to believe the frame bent rather easily. Anybody else see it?

Dang!! I only imagine what that thing went through. It looks like it got it pretty bad in the back end.

The frame is PRETTY much still where it should be in the front. Download the pic and blow it up and look again. It is the bumper that was ripped off and pushed up.

It looks like he went off road into a ditch, shoving the front end up, and continued out of the ditch on his side, hitting a tree or telephone pole at the rear wheel.

Looks like someone is going to get fired… or did someone hit him? It looks like he either rolled it, got hit my a semi or got hit by a train. I don’t know what else could cause damage to the top of a 7 foot tall SUV.
