MOBILE, Ala. — A Mobile police motorcycle patrolman was injured this evening in a collision with a car at U.S. 90 and Range Line Road, authorities said.
The officer’s identity and condition was not immediately released. Officers at the scene were investigating the motorcycle, which was turned on its side with its lights still flashing, and a red 2002 Buick Century about 20 feet away that had damage to its left front quarter panel. Both vehicles were in the middle of the intersection.
Al McMullen, 62, of Mobile, identified himself as the driver of the Buick. He said that he was “shaken up” but otherwise unhurt, and said his air bag deployed on impact. McMullen said the officer was conscious and appeared alert after the accident.
