high way patrol crashes into a motorcycle and cop threatens witness during start of the Sturgis motorcycle rally.
the Sturgis motorcycle rally has just started and 2 million bikers are geared to be in the black hills for the 75th rally. The police pocket a huge amount for traffic tickets and DUI . Sturgis sets up a special speed court for the event. But when they make mistakes, they tend to hide them. This is unfortunately another bad police story.
This story all came in thru some facebook photos that put the whole story together.
Here is what the first photo says
Pretty messed up when you witness a cop make a uturn and smash directly into a biker... It's then even worse when you try to see how badly the guy is hurt and try to help and the cop threatens you and then when you tell him you saw what he did.... Yea, not a great start to the rally....

Now for the kicker.... a motorcycle makes an unsafe uturn and runs into another biker at 6:45 with the highway patrol Sturgis and was charged with an unsafe uturn but the cop that made the unsafe uturn is still under investigation and charges are yet to be determined....
So what do you all think!!!!!!!!!
Now...
if the picture does not come in.... it is the highway patrol Sturgis website.
AT 645 pm two motorcycle injury crash occurred on Vanocker Canyon Road. nine miles south of Sturgis. A south bound motorcycle driven by Kevin Hefley, 49, made a U-turn. A second southbound motorcycle collided with him in the roadway. Neither rider was wearing a helmet. Hefley was charged with unsafe U turn. The roadway was temporarily closed while medics tended to the injured.
At 722 pm, a meade county deputy was traveling northbound on South Dakota Highway 79. The vehicle was fully marked Meade County Sheriffs Patrol Unit. The deputy began to make a U-turn across the roadway and collided with the front driver 's wheel and fender of a motorcycle driving by Francis Finley, 69, New Port, MN. Traffic was diverted around the crash scene until both vehicles were removed. There were no injuries to the deputy. Finley suffered a serious non-life threatening injury and was transported to Sturgis Hospital. Crash is still under investigation and charges are yet to be determined.
