A California Highway Patrol officer was involved in a violent crash in San Bernardino County Thursday night.
Details remain limited, and it’s unclear exactly what led to the collision. Crews with the Victorville Fire Department responded to reports of the crash at Hook Boulevard and Cobalt Road just after 8 p.m.
Footage of the aftermath obtained by KTLA showed a chaotic scene, with at least one CHP officer on the ground who appeared to be injured. Across the street, firefighters were attending to another person who also appeared to be hurt.
A large law enforcement response converged at the scene, with both CHP officers and units from the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department assisting.
Video showed debris scattered across the roadway, with a stretcher positioned in the middle of the street. Two CHP officers stood on either side of what appeared to be a Mercedes-Benz involved in the collision.
It is unclear whether the crash occurred while officers were responding to a call or were in pursuit of another vehicle. KTLA has reached out to the Sheriff’s Department and the California Highway Patrol for more information and is awaiting a response.
This is a developing story and will be updated as additional details become available.
