According to KTVZ.com, a young Oakridge, Oregon, police officer was not at fault in the tragic crash that killed Virginia Spalinger, 91, on October 12, 2009.
Following OSP’s investigation, and a review by Lane County prosecutors, authorities decided that no charges will be filed against Officer Daniel Miller, 27.
Miller was pursuing a speeder, with his lights and siren on, when Spalinger drove her car into his path. The head-on crash at the only stoplight in town killed Spalinger and injured Miller.
Crash investigators were not able to estimate Miller’s speed at the time of the crash.
