A sheriff's deputy from Lubbock is unharmed after their patrol vehicle was struck from behind by a car early Monday morning in Fort Worth, police say.
It happened before 3:50 a.m. at the intersection of South Main Street and Pennsylvania Avenue.
The deputy's SUV was stopped at a red light when it was rear-ended, police said. The deputy was not hurt.
The driver of the sedan was taken to a hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening. The driver, who has not been identified, was detained and questioned by officers who were investigating whether alcohol was a factor in the crash.
Police said the deputy had traveled to Fort Worth to escort the body of a fellow officer who had been killed in a crash Saturday morning.
