Erie County Sheriff Paul Sigsworth says his department is investigating after a Vermilion officer was struck by a driver Sunday afternoon while directing traffic.“We just found out his arm was bruised but not broken,” the sheriff said. “He is expected to be OK.”
There was quite a bit of traffic in Vermilion on Sunday, since it was Fox 8’s Woollybear Festival and a perfect day to be near the lake. The driver stopped after the crash, which was near Route 60 and Route 2. Deputies are investigating. No official charges have been filed.
