An SUV slammed into a stop Tulsa Police car with emergency lights flashing. It happened during an accident investigation just before 2 a.m. Sunday on northbound Highway 169 near 11th Street.

Just up the road, first responders were trying to get a driver involved in the first crash to the hospital.

Officers had a  cruiser parked in the left lanes to help block and slow down traffic for a three-car crash up the road.

When officers heard the second crash, they turned around to find an SUV slammed into the back of the parked cruiser. Thankfully, no officers were hurt, and the driver of the SUV was not injured.

Wreckers worked to clear the two crashes.

Police say a driver from the first crash, who was also in an SUV, was taken to the hospital. Police say he's expected to survive.

Officers haven't released information on the driver of the SUV that crashed into the police vehicle other than they were not injured.
