A Bettendorf Police cruiser was one of a number of vehicle involved in a Friday afternoon crash.
Bettendorf Police Chief Keith Kimball says a driver failed to stop for police in the area of 26th and Grant St. and ended up crashing in the area of Grant St. and 17th St.
Kimball said the driver, identified as 28-year-old Roosevelt Miller Jr., rear-ended a squad car, totaling his car and causing ‘significant’ damage to the squad car.
A KWQC-TV6 crew reported a third car on scene suffered damage on the rear bumper. Police said the passenger in the vehicle driven by Miller suffered minor injuries and was treated at the scene and released.
The Bettendorf officer in the cruiser that was struck by Miller did not suffer any reported injuries, according to Kimball.
According to an inmate listing on the Scott County Jail, Miller is facing multiple charges including interference with official acts, leaving of the scene of a personal injury accident, speeding, driving without insurance, a lane violation, and driving on a suspended license.
