Police Cruiser Hits Vehicle on Rolling Road
A 49-year-old Burke area woman was charged with driving while intoxicated after striking a Fairfax County police officer’s vehicle on Friday, April 16 shortly before 9:30 p.m.
Cristina Zamorano of 9201 Lake Braddock Drive was driving a 2009 Toyota Corolla when she pulled out of Parliament Drive into the path of a 15 year veteran officer who was traveling northbound on Rolling Road. The 40-year-old officer and his K9 were en route to a burglary in progress and had the vehicle’s emergency lights and siren activated at the time of the crash.
Both drivers suffered serious, but non life-threatening injuries. Zamorano was flown to Inova Fairfax Hospital and the officer was transported there by ambulance. The officer was released this morning. His K9 partner was evaluated by a veterinarian and did not suffer serious injury.
Detectives from the Crash Reconstruction Unit responded to the crash and are continuing to investigate.
