Two Killed in Warren Crash Involving Police Car – What Happened?

Crash Details and Scene

According to Warren Police Department’s Lieutenant John Gajewski, the accident involved a white Dodge Durango, driven by Hayden, which collided with the police vehicle. The crash occurred just as Hayden was turning onto his own street. Bystanders reported hearing a loud boom at the time of the collision. The scene showed a heavy impact with significant damage to both vehicles.

Upon arriving at the scene, emergency responders found that one of the officers was critically injured and had to be extricated from the police vehicle by the Warren Fire Department. That officer was immediately taken to the hospital and is currently receiving treatment. The other officer, while injured, is expected to recover after medical evaluations.

No Connection to Police Chase

Initial concerns arose over whether the police vehicle was involved in a high-speed pursuit, but Warren PD officials quickly clarified that the crash had no connection to any police chase. Lieutenant Gajewski emphasized that there was a police chase related to a break-in that occurred two hours after the fatal accident, but this pursuit was unrelated to the crash itself.

Warren Police also stressed that the investigation into the accident would look into all factors, including whether the police vehicle had its sirens or lights on at the time. Many bystanders and family members of the victims have raised questions about whether the police officers followed proper procedures and whether the lights or sirens could have alerted Hayden to the oncoming vehicle.

Family Mourning the Loss of Two Lives

The family of Cedric Hayden is devastated by the tragic loss. His mother, Theresa Ford, spoke emotionally about her son, who was only 34 years old. She remembered him as a person full of life and fun, deeply loved by his family, especially his daughters. Hayden and Pettis were reportedly returning home when the crash occurred, just moments away from his house. The family had to wait hours at the scene while Hayden’s body was examined and eventually removed.

Ford, heartbroken, expressed her faith during the painful ordeal, stating that she believes God is in control, even in the face of such tragedy. She called for love, forgiveness, and prayer in this difficult time, a sentiment echoed by other family members as they continue to grieve.

Investigation Underway

As the investigation continues, many questions remain unanswered. The Warren Police Department has acknowledged the public’s desire for immediate answers, but they emphasize the need for a thorough investigation. They will look into factors such as the police vehicle’s speed, the use of sirens or lights, and other possible distractions that may have contributed to the crash.

Police officials urge the public to be patient as investigators work through the details. The crash investigation will likely include an examination of the scene, vehicle data, and interviews with any witnesses.

In the meantime, the community of Warren is reeling from the tragedy, which has left two families mourning the loss of loved ones and a police department dealing with the aftermath of an incident that has claimed two lives and left one of their own critically injured. The full results of the investigation may take time, but many are hoping for clarity and closure once all the details are uncovered.

As the community waits for more information, the families of Hayden and Pettis continue to ask for prayers and support during this unimaginable time.
