Posted on Feb 18, 2010 5:30am PST
When an off-duty police officer drove his car into a garbage truck and flipped onto the sidewalk in Midtown Manhattan, he injured three other people, one suffering from a broken arm. On February 13, 2010, the police officer caused the accident that also resulted in his car knocking down a tree and scratching the façade of the Tiffany & Company flagship store. The officer was charged with driving while intoxicated and will most likely be suspended for 30 days without pay. The driver of the garbage truck was not injured and all others involved in the drunk driving accident primarily suffered minor injuries.
