Edgewater, FL-A driver involved in a crash with a South Daytona Police Department patrol car Saturday is suspected of drunk driving pending results of a blood test.
The South Daytona officer, identified as Officer Sarah Jackson, was northbound on US 1 driving to work Saturday just after 5:30 PM. She had the green light and was in the intersection with East Park Avenue when the other vehicle southbound turned left into the path of the patrol car.
Edgewater PD and FHP responded to investigate and smelled the strong odor of alcohol on the driver of the other vehicle identified as Joseph Guinn. He also had open containers in the vehicle.
Both Guinn and Jackson were transported to Halifax Hospital for treatment. SDPD sources say Officer Jackson is now recovering at home.
Both vehicles had to be towed. Photos of both vehicles courtesy of SDPD.
