According to a TV reporter’s investigation:
The police officer was traveling at a rate of 60 miles per hour when he hit the van killing a 4 year old and seriously injuring one adult. The speed limit is 35 mile per hour and I understand that this means that the officer was speeding beyond what is reasonable for an officer in pursuit should be traveling through a residential area.

Witnesses, I understand, say that the officer did not have either his lights or siren on as he was pursuit the auto that believed ran a stop sign.

The van that was hit by the officer’s car had the right-a-way and the officer ran the stop sign.

There were no skid marks at the collision point and the officer’s car pushed the van sideways approximately 30 feet into a yard.

It appears that the car that the officer was in pursuit of simply turned at the end oso thatf the street and most likely did not know the officer was in pursuit. The street makes a sharp left turn at the end so it appears that the officer was trying to catch up before the car in question went out of sight around the corner.

Apparently due to legal pursuits the witnesses cannot be named at this time.

I believe that this is or at least should be what the reporter will be reporting on TV.
