The Tigard Police Department has released video from a collision that
resulted in one of the agency's officers crashing into a Tigard home in
early September.
The department today said that the officer, 34-year-old Caleb Phillips, a
three-year veteran of the agency, was not to blame in the collision.
Clyde Allen Rizzutto, 65, of Tigard, will receive a failure to yield to
an emergency vehicle citation in connection with the crash, said Jim
Wolf, Tigard police spokesman.
Is it just me or did this not look like the officers fault? Yea he had his siren on, but the guy driving the other car was 65, he probably couldn't here it five feet away. He just took a standard left turn and the officer never even slowed down. It's the same as going through a red traffic light with your siren on, you still gotta yield or your gonna get crushed eventually. Slow your damn roll cop.
