Police, fire and courts
The Peoria police officer injured in a two-vehicle accident over the weekend has been released from a local hospital and likely will return to duty next week.
The truck’s driver, Mitchell E. Slock, 43, of 1811 W. Kingsway Drive, Apt. E1 was heading east on Willow Knolls when he failed to yield to the emergency vehicle, witnesses told police.
Slock and his passenger, his wife, Leanne F. Slock, 43, were taken to OSF Saint Francis Medical Center for treatment. Mitchell Slock was listed in fair condition Monday; Leanne Slock was released the same day of the accident.
