(CBS Colorado) – A Weld County Sheriff’s Office deputy is continuing his recovery nearly six months after a suspected drunk driver crashed into his patrol vehicle while he was conducting a traffic stop on Interstate 25 in Northern Colorado.
Deputy Patrick Bailey was stopped just south of Colorado Highway 52 near Frederick shortly after midnight on Feb. 1. He said he was inside his patrol vehicle when the crash happened. “I was in the process of writing a ticket.
I was turned sideways typing on the computer when everything went dark,” Bailey said. A suspected drunk driver slammed into the back of Bailey’s patrol vehicle. CONTINUE
