Headstart School Bus Rollover

I was Southbound on I-15, just going under the 1200 South overpass in Orem, when I saw a large plume of dirt that had just been kicked up by an obvious vehicle rolling through the median about a half a mile South of my location. I notified dispatch and then hustled down to the crash scene. As I approached, I saw the Headstart school bus that had just rolled over. I was sick at the thought of children being inside the bus. Luckily, there were no children on board at the time-- just two adult women on their way to Provo to pick up some kids. Both women were ejected and suffered injuries.The Trooper standing on the bus was quite skilled at being "Zero" assistance on incidents like this one.

Sherwood Brewer was the friend of Thayes Ludlow (one of our lady Troopers) and her husband, Sterling. He played second base in the Negro Leagues. Sherwood helped Jackie Robinson with his transition into Major League baseball. Our crew got to know Sherwood at one of our Crew parties.







Session #169 was a fun two and a half months of police academy! After the first few days, the real personalities starts showing-- some uptight, some quiet and the rest having a sense of humor. There never seemed to be a dull moment.
