FORT WORTH, TX – A passenger sustained critical, life-threatening injuries as a result of a crash involving a Fort Worth Police officer vehicle on Sunday, Fox4News said.
The two-vehicle collision happened at 4:15 a.m. on the 6500th block of Camp Bowie Boulevard. Fort Worth police said the police officer, driving a black Ford Explorer, was going east on Camp Bowie, struck the front passenger side of a westbound black Chevrolet Malibu.
