Crash – Non-injury
Location 20, Mile post 31 31 WB, LINCOLN OR
Narrative Summary
(ecrash) On 4/3/21 at approximately 11:29 pm I was dispatched to a single vehicle, roll-over crash, involving a gray Chevy Silverado (546JUK), which occurred on US 20 near mile post 31. Unit #1 was westbound when the juvenile driver reported she swerved to avoid hitting a deer. Roadway and shoulder evidence showed the vehicle had a shallow departure angle from the road off the westbound shoulder. At some point the vehicle began to roll and struck two road signs before coming to an uncontrolled rest on its top just off the westbound shoulder. During the scene investigation I located numerous CO2 cartridges and a Whippet dispenser in and around the vehicle. An adult passenger admitted to recently purchasing the dispenser and using it as inhalant.

DUII – Alcohol
Location 18, Mile post 3 3 EB, LINCOLN OR USA
Narrative Summary
On 4/4/21 at approximately 1:14 am I was dispatched to a single vehicle roll over crash, involving a tan Buick sedan (WVM616), on SR 18 near mile post 3. The vehicle was eastbound and negotiating back-to-back curves when it drove off the eastbound shoulder. It continued across a steep embankment and struck two road signs before it begin to flip end-over-end. The vehicle came to an uncontrolled rest on its top, partially blocking the eastbound lane. The driver self-extricated and was later transported to North Lincoln Hospital for complaints of pain. I contacted the driver at the hospital and during a crash interview he exhibited numerous signs of impairment and admitted to drinking alcohol prior to the crash. A hospital blood draw showed the driver had a .296% BAC. The driver consented to a blood draw for law enforcement and was later cited and released on the charges of DUII – Alcohol, Reckless Driving and Criminal Mischief II. The vehicle was towed from the scene by Car Care Towing.
