Officer William Tinkle of the Krugerville Police Department was seriously injured while offduty and on his way home Monday morning.
Tinkle, who has served Krugerville for around 13 years, considers himself lucky while recovering from a car accident involving a fourdoor passenger vehicle that was eastbound on Arvin Hill Road.
“This is why I do what I do,” he said. “That’s why I’m so big on traffic, because I want people to get home and get home safe. I’ve never worried about whether people liked me or not. It’s all about safety. I love everybody that goes through my community, if I know them or not.”
