Car Fleeing Cop Kills Motorcyclist

 

A police chase of a motorist who made a U turn to avoid a drunken driving checkpoint in Fairfield resulted in the death of brother motorcyclist rider John Kallmeyer.

Newpaper reports state the the chase began at the Symmes road and Pleasant Avenue border checkpoint. Officers spoted a white Cadillac making a u-turn in an apparent attempt to avoid the checkpoint. They chased the cadillac and in the course of the chase it hit one vehicle then struck motorcycle rider John Kallmeyer.

John Kallmeyer was an Army veteran, raised horses and enjoyed motorcycle riding.

Kenneth Haugabook was arrested for vehicular homicide.

Our deepest sympathies go out to the family of John Kallmeyer.


Not to minimize the conduct of Haugabook, but I wonder why police pursued Haugabook for such a minimal traffic violation, into another county . Maybe if they had not, John Kallmeyer would be alive today. At least an investigation should be made to determine if police followed their own pursuit guidelines.
