A police officer was injured in an automobile accident last week in Louisville. A witness told the media that the officer either was distracted or could not handle the sharp turn. The witness also suspected the officer was speeding prior to the wreck. Another vehicle was involved, but no injuries reported.

"Something must've been going on with her being distracted or going at a rate of speed, she couldn't handle the turn," said Joe Meiman, who was working about 50 feet away.

Many people who live on New Lagrange road say it's not the first accident on this stretch of road, and they are worried about it happening again.
