The Kentucky State Police Department in London is continuing its investigation into a fatal traffic crash in Pulaski County in which one of the drivers was an off-duty Garrard County police officer.

KSP said they were called just before midnight on Saturday, August 17, for a two-vehicle collision that occurred on US 27 near Old Norwood Road in the Science Hill community of Pulaski County, involving an off-duty Lancaster Police Department officer.

According to state police, their preliminary investigation indicates that a Dodge Durango police vehicle driven by Officer Derrick A. Glover, 31, of Nancy, was traveling south on U.S. 27 when his vehicle collided with the rear of a red Coleman 196cc dirt bike driven by a juvenile who was not wearing a helmet.

The teenager was fatally injured in the collision and was pronounced dead at the scene by the Pulaski County Coroner. Officer Glover was not injured in the accident.

The KSP also announced on Tuesday that it is asking for the public's assistance in this investigation.

Anyone who saw the juvenile-operated dirt bike or the Lancaster PD Dodge Durango police vehicle at or near the scene prior to the crash is asked to contact KSP Lt. Hunter Martin by phone (502-782-1847) or email ([email protected]).
