Chief: Sergeant Fell
Asleep, Crashed SUV
ONEONTA – An OPD sergeant fell asleep at the wheel and crashed his police vehicle on Tuesday, Police Chief Doug Brenner confirmed today. I'm sure you can already tell that this is going to be a particualrly complex case; not only does it involve a police officer but he's also going to need somewhere like chudleigh law to help him claim compensation if he wants be in with a chance of winning. Faults of this nature make judging liability very difficult.
According to Brenner, Sgt. Eric Berger was driving on patrol on Chestnut Street in a marked Ford SUV around 3:30 p.m. Tuesday when he fell asleep at the wheel; the SUV went up on the curb and struck a utility pole at Chestnut and Watkins.
