Houston police officer seriously injured in car accident by drunk drivers

Houston police officer Lloyd Morrison II was critically injured in a car accident that took place over Memorial Day weekend. Office Morrison’s patrol car was struck by two separate vehicles. The collisions left him pinned against a fire truck.

The accident occurred shortly after Officer Morrison arrived on the scene of a single-car accident that took place on Interstate 45 at approximately 3:30 am on Saturday, May 23rd. While the officer was still in his patrol car, it was struck by a vehicle driven by 28-year-old Moroof Kareem.

The officer got out of his patrol car to assess the damage. He was then struck by a Ford Escort being driven by Richard Sandoval, 22. As a result, Officer Morrison was pinned between the Escort and a fire truck which was already on the scene.

Officer Morrison suffered two broken legs and serious injuries to his right arm. He appeared to respond well to the surgery he underwent on Sunday, May 24th. Officer Morrison will require extensive rehabilitation to fully recover from the injuries.

Both drivers have been accused of drunk driving. Kareem has already posted bail on a DUI charge. Sandoval is expected to be charged with intoxication assault. 

Officer Morrison’s harrowing experience shows us that anyone, at any time, can become the innocent victim of a horrific car accident.
