KILLEEN (November 18, 2009)-- A Killeen police officer was taken to the hospital Wednesday night to be checked out after a car hit him.

It happened just after 8:00 p.m. near the intersection of Wolf and Hallmark Streets.

Police say the officer was outside of his vehicle working an accident when a driver tried to go around his car and hit him.

The officer, whose name was not released, was taken to Scott & White Hospital in Temple, where he was treated and later released.

There was no immediate word on whether the driver of the car that struck the officer will be charged.

I totally agree with Officer.. I am an EMT and I have seen first hand that people don't slow down for emergency vehicles. Not only do people not slow down or get in the other lane, most of the time they are talking on the phone or texting while driving. Another problem is that so many drivers want to "rubber neck" they want to watch what is going on at the scene of the accident rather than pay attention to driving!

To Junior, You are an idiot. The lights are to warn you to slow down, your idiotic comments make me hope that that when you need an officer, as you are lying under your car because you drove like a jerk, that the officer knows you are the one that is so hateful of law enforcement officers, and he drives on by. Only a common thug would express something like this. Had it been a member of your family that was in the accident you would be calling every 5 seconds for help. May you rot in HELL
