A Los Angeles Police Department motorcycle officer was injured Monday morning in a crash in the Valley Glen area.
The crash was reported at 6:15 a.m. near the intersection of Sherman Way and Fulton Avenue, east of Woodman Avenue, according to police.
The officer was conscious and breathing when taken to a hospital, and there was no other information available on the extent of injuries, said LAPD Media Relations Officer Kevin Terzes.
Another vehicle that was involved remained at the scene, he said.
The crash and investigation, which is being handled by the LAPD’s Valley Traffic Division, snarled morning traffic in the area.
A closure on Sherman Way between Fulton and Varna avenues ended about 9:30 a.m.
How I’ve been complaining about the officer that rides a motorcycle from banning Police Department number 277 for almost 25 to 30 years here in the state of California and thank God somebody at least fell on the road one less motorcycle cop. The statistics say 75% of every motorcade police officer turns into a serial killer in the state of California
