Culver City, CA. Hit-and-Run Crash Injures LAPD Officer on Centinela Avenue
Culver City, CA. (June 27, 2018) – A local news source stated that a respected Los Angeles Police Department officer was reportedly injured after a hit-and-run accident on Centinela Avenue in Culver City Tuesday. The unfortunate incident was reported at approximately 4:00 p.m. Tuesday afternoon. According to reports, the female officer who was struck was responding to a domestic violence call at the time.
The officer was reportedly hit by a vehicle that was being operated by a man named, Tommy Davis. The impact of the hit apparently forced the police cruiser to crash into a pole. The officer suffered serious injuries including broken bones as a result of the accident. The officer was quickly transported to a local hospital to be treated for her injuries, although her exact condition is currently unknown at this time.
After the accident, Davis fled the scene on foot, leaving behind his silver Cadillac Escalade. Officials are currently looking for Davis at this time.
